the article analyzes the concept of "mediation", which is enshrined in the current Russian legislation. It is proved that in sports disputes it is mediation that can provide a faster and more confi dential alternative settlement with the least losses to resolve the confl ict while maintaining business cooperation and contributing to the development of partnerships.
