Raipur, October 10, 2026: Hidayatullah National Law University (HNLU), Raipur, has achieved yet another distinction in the field of sports law and arbitration, with a team of four students emerging as the Winner of the 4th Sports Arbitration Moot Award Competition, 2026–27.

The winning team comprised Mahi Agrawal, Siya Gupta, Ambati Nupur Rao, and Atharv Sharma. In recognition of their outstanding performance, the team has been awarded a monetary prize of EUR 1,000.

The Sports Arbitration Moot Award Competition is an extension of the Sports Arbitration Moot, an international academic competition focusing on contemporary legal issues arising in the field of sports arbitration. The 2026 edition of the Sports Arbitration Moot was held in Madrid, Spain, in May 2026, and witnessed participation from 76 teams representing universities from across the world. The competition provided participating students with an opportunity to engage with complex questions of sports law and arbitration in a simulated professional setting.

The moot proposition for the competition this year centred on the highly contemporary and significant issue of match-fixing in a football match. The legal issues arising from the dispute were argued before a simulated Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), requiring participants to examine the intersection of sports regulations, arbitration principles, disciplinary proceedings, and the integrity of sporting competitions.
