Answer
In principle, it is not permissible for a man to expose his Satar (area between the navel and the kness) to anyone. Therefore, waxing legs for sporting reasons is prohibited.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
