(School of Law,Xiangtan University,Xiangtan 411105,China) Abstract: Although competition in the sports industry has its special particularities, it is still in the range of the an-titrust law system, so behaviors of sports industrial associations should be examined by applying the antitrust law. Sports industrial associations in China are provided with the status of social groups, they are also social organiza-tions that enjoy the power for public management according to laws and legislations. Therefore, their related behav-ior can be standardized by applying industrial association related stipulations in the antitrust law, and their related behaviors can be examined by applying administrative monopolizing behavior banning clauses in the antitrust law. The implementation of the antitrust law has provided a new way to the legal monitoring of management behaviors of sports industrial associations in China.
