No festival at Holmenkollen for banned Norwegians

Quick Summary:

Oslo’s annual Holmenkollen Ski Festival was getting underway again on Thursday, but without the main coaches for Norway’s own ski jumping team or two of the jumpers who won medals at last week’s World Championships.

They’re all either suspended or been banned from competition by the international skiing federation FIS.

Rivals seemed relieved, with Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) reporting how the skiing federation in Poland, where ski jumping is highly popular, had wanted Forfang and Lindvik to be banned from competing.
