Profili costituzionali del c.d. ius soli sportivo: il tesseramento dei minori stranieri tra disciplina legislativa e Drittwirkung dei diritti fondamentali

The article deals with the new Italian law (n° 12, 20.1.2016), that puts on the same footing, with regard to the registration procedures for sport associations, Italian and foreign children, provided that they had been living in Italy before their tenth birthday. The essay analyses the new legislation from a constitutional point of view and focuses in particular on the fundamental rights involved (freedom of association, the practice of sport as a human right, right to work, freedom of enterprise). These constitutional guarantees request to give a flexible interpretation of the limits set by the law, when it comes to situation where the higher interest of the child is not at stake.
