Abstract: The boundary between sports law and common law is not a clear one, and this uncertainty is exacerbated in the matter of legal liability. Controversies often arise in connection with the applicability of common law rules in the matter of liability in sports. Active subjects of certain crimes, but also passive subjects can be organizers of sports competitions, managers of sports clubs or decision-making staff of federations, athletes, teaching staff, auxiliary staff, spectators and last but not least, athletes. The elements that differentiate a criminal trial from one without sporting connotations are mainly represented by the active and passive subject and by the circumstances of the commission of the crime, which can be assessed as mitigating or aggravating circumstances.
