Make a presentation about Research Project: “The Business of Women’s Sports: Law, Contracts, and Equality” Are female athletes being treated fairly under current contracts and sports laws—and what legal changes should be made? Project Overview Students will investigate how contracts, labor law, and federal law impact women’s sports, using real-world examples like: • WNBA • Title IX • Caitlin Clark • A'ja Wilson They will then take a position on whether the current system is fair—and propose legal or contractual reforms. Project Components Part 1: Background Research Answer: • What is Title IX and how did it change women’s sports? • How do professional sports leagues make money?

Part 3: Case Study Analysis Students choose ONE: Option A: Pay Equity • Compare WNBA vs NBA salaries • Compare U.S. Women’s Soccer equal pay fight Option B: Media & Broadcasting Rights • Analyze how TV contracts impact exposure • Does lack of airtime create inequality? Option C: NIL & Social Media Contracts • How do athletes profit from branding? • Should social media influence contract value?
