The European Handball Federation (EHF) said in a statement that its disciplinary commission had dealt with a case of improper clothing as the shorts were not according to the Athlete Uniform Regulations defined in the IHF Beach Handball Rules of the game , reports ABC News.
According to International Handball Federation rules, women athletes must wear bikini bottoms with a close fit and cut on an upward angle toward the top of the leg. On the sides, the bottoms can be no longer than four inches. Men, on the other hand, can wear shorts four inches above the knee.
