In this episode of The Civil Law Podcast from Pump Court Chambers, host Louisa Simpson speaks with special guests Eoghan Kelly (DWF Law) and Adam Gadd (Pump Court) on all things Sports Injuries. Together the speakers discuss recent developments in Sports Personal Injury, in particular through the lens of four recent cases:

• Tylicki v Gibbons [2021] EWHC 3470 (QB);
• Fulham Football Club v Jones [2022] EWHC 1108 (QB);
• Czernuszka v King [2023] EWHC 380; and
• Clark v Elbanna [2025] EWHC Civ 776.

The cases and discussion help to draw out how the test of negligence has been applied in the sports sector, in particular regarding the use of disciplinary rules and findings of independent adjudicators or referees, and the test of ‘recklessness’.
