Different sport, but...

Many moons ago I was at Volleyball Nationals (USVBA, AAU, I can't remember). A very good juniors girls team from Orange County, CA, was scheduled to play a team that included some former national team members. In a previous match the latter team was discovered to have jerseys that didn't conform to the rules. Word got out that the juniors team planned to protest the jerseys. Word also got out that the "older" team planned to call the bluff of the juniors team, and change into different jerseys on the court if the juniors team protested. Like the players in the OP, several of the players on the "older" team liked the free and breezy life. Needless to say, a lot of people attended the match. When the juniors team did, indeed, protest the jerseys, the "older" team switched jerseys right on the court. Discretion proved to be the better part of valor, however; they were all wearing bras (in the time way before sports bras). The "older" team then proceeded to pummel the juniors team.

You got that right. My wife's family is Swedish. She has three sisters. "Shy" is not a word I would include in any description of them.

BTW - I have a poster that I photoshopped my wife's photo onto. It says, "SWEDISH GIRLS - making British girls look ugly since 1428".
