It is a fun game, played it a few times on beach holidays a fair few years ago. It’s a shame it’s made the headlines for the wrong reasons in the past week…Then watch the Handball, its fast high scoring end to end action
I hadn't heard about that, and yes its disgusting, good on the Norwegian federation for stumping up the fine rather than the players paying it themselvesIt is a fun game, played it a few times on beach holidays a fair few years ago.

European Beach Handball Championships: Norway hit with 1,500 euros bikini fine
Norway are fined 1,500 euros (£1,295) for wearing shorts instead of bikini bottoms at the European Beach Handball Championships.www.bbc.co.uk
Good on you, women of Norway. That ruling is frankly disgusting.
It’s ridiculous, isn’t it? I notion that we lobby and force the British men’s team to play wearing bikinis. The sort of people who enforced that original fine would probably pay good money to not have to see that and we could put that money towards breaking down certain barriers.I read that Pink was intending to pay the fine. It is archaic to have a sporting uniform which is basically a bikini. That would automatically alienate women from many countries and would likely be a deterrent for many women ‘even in the West’.

And if they don’t take heed, we’ll put the funds into a ‘foxy boxing’ match, me vs @SpyderTracks both wearing full lingerie, with @Scott and @ubuysa as the ring girls waving the round cards in their high heels.
They say sex sells… we’ll see about that.
precisely what i was thinking... was actually checking to see if i do have any bleach under the sink 😛
It’s a well known fact that wearing shorts gives you a huge advantage against the opposition. Frankly, I’m embarrassed that I have to explain it to you and it’s just incurred you a fine of €1500. I accept most major credit cards and PayPal, please make it payable to the handball association of Norway 😜i do remember thinking at the time i heard about the fine levied against the Norwegian team, "what the hell has that got to do with the game?? if they want to play in shorts rather than bikinis good for them.."

Maybe they had added some RGB to the shorts, which as we all know enhances performance no end.........................It’s a well known fact that wearing shorts gives you a huge advantage against the opposition.

As long as I don't have to wear a bikini.....? 😱And if they don’t take heed, we’ll put the funds into a ‘foxy boxing’ match, me vs @SpyderTracks both wearing full lingerie, with @Scott and @ubuysa as the ring girls waving the round cards in their high heels.

That photo ‘of @ubuysa’ has decided the uniform for the ring girls. It has to be Sumo nappies 🤣
Some things just aren't meant to be seen...Ahhh reminds me of my Stag Do in Magalluf. Definitely don't think that would be televised though, at least not before the 18+ & blind curfew.
