Optimizing the Transformation of Lex Sportiva into Local Regulations to Achieve Good Sports Governance in Bekasi City
Lex Sportiva is a transnational normative order produced by sports organizations, federation rules, and arbitral practice. Its norms do not automatically operate as municipal public law. This normative legal study examines how selected Lex Sportiva principles may be received and harmonized within Bekasi City sports regulations without displacing mandatory national law. The study uses statutory and conceptual approaches and qualitatively compares Law No. 11 of 2022 on Sports, Presidential Regulation No. 86 of 2021 on the National Sports Grand Design, Bekasi City Regional Regulation No. 5 of 2019, Bekasi Mayor Regulation No. 50 of 2020, and Bekasi Mayor Regulation No. 6 of 2022 against a consolidated framework covering lawful organizational autonomy, integrity and fair play, accountable governance, athlete protection, and accessible dispute resolution. Interviews and focus-group discussions mentioned in the research record are treated only as contextual expert consultation because participant-level and ethics documentation was not available for reproducible empirical reporting. The analysis finds that Bekasi already has a sectoral regulatory foundation, but the reviewed instruments do not transparently establish a complete, integrated good-sports-governance architecture. Reform should therefore proceed through selective reception: each transnational standard must be screened for municipal competence, compatibility with superior law and public policy, institutional feasibility, and procedural safeguards. The study contributes a non-quantitative, provision-by-provision legal screening model and rejects automatic incorporation, an arbitrary compliance threshold, and an unsupported municipal equivalent of the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
