It also outlines the validity and terms of Representation Agreements and the disclosure and publication obligations of agents. Conversely, a legal journal article critically analyzes the FFAR's compliance with European competition law, arguing that the regulations, especially the fee cap, restrict free competition and are unlikely to qualify for exceptions based on the "nature of sport."
