Beach Handball team

A fine of 1,500 euros has been charged against Norway’s women beach handball team at the European championship on July 19 for wearing shorts instead of bikini bottoms. The European Handball Federation (EHF) stated that the shorts were "not according to the Athlete Uniform Regulations defined in the IHF Beach Handball Rules".
