Resumen

This paper aims to demonstrate sports arbitration in practice in the Brazilian Center for Mediation and Arbitration (CBMA). For this, we will use an empirical approach, that is, based on practical cases from the National Chamber of Dispute Resolution (CNRD) of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF). The methodological approach is thematic and chronological. We will only address sports arbitration appeals related to Brazilian football since 2017, when the CBMA became a CNRD arbitral appeal institution. The analysis criteria are straightforward: the rules of sports arbitration appeal procedure, operation, and data collected from the cases. Through these criteria and qualitative and quantitative methodology, we will reach our conclusions.
