Legalink is honoured to announce that Dan Hunt, President of FC Dallas and Co-Chairman of FIFA World Cup 26™ Dallas, will be a featured speaker at the upcoming Legalink Sports Law Seminar, “Scoring Goals, Managing Risk: Legal, Business, & Media Challenges in the Modern Sports Arena.” The event will take place on October 30 in Dallas, hosted by Bell Nunnally & Martin LLP.

Dan Hunt has served as President of FC Dallas since 2014, leading one of Major League Soccer’s original clubs with a reputation for vision and innovation. He also chaired Dallas’ successful FIFA World Cup 2026™ bid, securing nine matches for the city—the most of any host city across North America.
