Player Unions

Player unions are organizations formed by professional athletes to represent their collective interests, rights, and well-being. They negotiate on issues like salaries, working conditions, health benefits, and disciplinary policies with team owners and leagues. By banding together, players gain stronger bargaining power than they would individually. These unions also advocate for player rights, provide legal support, and promote fair treatment. Overall, they help ensure that players are treated fairly, protected from unfair practices, and have a voice in decisions affecting their careers and livelihoods.
