Matthew Kaiser is a graduate of Villanova University School of Law and an emerging force in the sports law world. He first joined the Global Sports Advocates (www.globalsportsadvocates.com) legal team in 2016 as an intern while a student in the International Sports Law Master's program at the Instituto Superior de Derecho y Economía (ISDE) based in Madrid, Spain. Matt has been a full-time International sports attorney since 2017 and in that time has become an invaluable member of the Global Sports Advocates team. Matt is a member of the Sports Resolutions and International Ice Hockey Federation pro bono panels. A leading voice on sports law issues, he frequently speaks at conferences around the world and has authored numerous articles. He has argued cases in front of the International Court for Arbitration in Sport, numerous sport governing bodies, the World Anti Doping Association, and many others. He has also represented victims of abuse from coaches, and coaches who have been wrongfully accused by a weaponized Safesport system. In today's conversation, we cover anti-doping, Safesport, athlete advocacy, and how coaches can use best practices to protect themselves from false accusations of misconduct. The scariest part of our conversation was one line from Matt: "I would never want to be a coach in this day and age."
