Thomas A. Baker III

(Associate Professor)

Associate Professor of Sport at the International Center for Sport Management at the University of Georgia and Editor of the Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport. My research primarily focuses on the application of law to sport and within that focus I specialize in how commercial laws influence sport, such as legal issues concerning brand image/management and the regulation of marketing through advertisements and social media. I also conduct injury prevention research that focuses on the risk of sexual violence in sports, with a particular focus on methods for preventing violence against children.
