Overview
- The FIVB disciplinary panel on Feb. 19 imposed a one‑tournament ban, citing Article 8.3 on conduct of a non‑sporting nature.
- The suspension rules Solberg out of the Beach Pro Tour Elite event in João Pessoa, scheduled for March 11–15.
- The case stems from her Nov. 23, 2025 on‑court interview in Adelaide, where she celebrated Jair Bolsonaro’s imprisonment after winning bronze.
- The federation says the decision may be appealed, and immediate coverage reported no substantive response from Solberg or Brazil’s volleyball federation.
- Brazilian left‑wing politicians denounced the punishment as censorship, and Solberg’s 2020 warning for saying “Fora Bolsonaro” provides precedent for earlier disciplinary scrutiny.
