Norwegian women's beach team fined for not playing in bikinis

[niftynev]

I don't know if it is still the case, but I have previously read that the rules state a maximum bikini size for females, and a minimum shorts length for males. This is stupid and sexist, unbefitting a sport that is in the olympics. If playing in loose clothing (shorts and t-shirts like the males) leads to playing better, then all players should be allowed to do so, likewise, if playing in tight skimpy lycra is better, all players should be allowed to do so.
