Team Info
The Norway women's national basketball team, known as "Håndbakene" (The Handshake), represents Norway in senior international competition under the Norwegian Basketball Federation. Based in Oslo, they compete in FIBA European Championships for Women, typically in the lower divisions, with home games played at venues like the Jordal Amfi. The team was formed to promote and develop women's basketball in a nation where winter sports dominate. Wearing red, white, and blue, the team has historically focused on building a competitive program from the ground up. While Norway has not yet qualified for a major tournament like the EuroBasket top division or Olympics, the team has shown steady improvement. Their peak moments often come in qualification campaigns where they punch above their weight. The modern era sees a mix of domestic-based players and a few professionals competing in leagues elsewhere in Europe. The team culture is defined by grit, teamwork, and a strong sense of community, with a loyal but niche fan base. The program continues to work diligently to raise the profile of basketball in Norway.
