(ForEveryMom) Players of the Norwegian women’s beach handball team were fined by the European Handball Federation (EHF) on Monday, after players wore thigh-length spandex shorts, instead of the required bikini bottoms at the European Handball Championship over the weekend.
The team was fined $1,770 – about $177 per player – for choosing to wear shorts in their bronze medal match against Spain. In a statement from its Disciplinary Commission, the EHF said the players broke the uniform requirements set forth by the International Handball Federation (IHF).
