Norway Women's Handball Team Fined For Ditching Bikini Bottoms For Shorts

Norway's women's beach handball players are getting fined for ditching their required bikini bottoms for shorts during a game...
quote:This is from 2019...
The team had reportedly been planning the protest for weeks ... hoping to put the spotlight on the differences in what the men and women are told to wear during competition -- men can wear much longer shorts, while women are forced to wear skimpy bottoms.
The players decided on Sunday's game to make their statement ... with the whole team rocking shorts during their bronze medal matchup with Spain at the European Beach Handball Championships in Bulgaria.
The European Handball Federation fined each player 150 euros -- a tad short of $177 -- for the uniform violation ... which the Norwegian Handball Federation has vowed to pay.
