Kampforbundet for Rød Sportsenhet
Kampforbundet for Rød Sportsenhet ('Struggle League for Red Sports Unity') was a sporting organization in Norway. It was colloquially known as Rød sport. It was founded by the Communist Party of Norway in 1931, in reaction to the decision of the Arbeidernes Idrettsforbund (AIF, 'Workers Sports League') to leave the Red Sports International (Sportintern). The organization was re-unified with AIF in 1934, as a result of negotiations between AIF and Sportintern in Moscow. During its peak, Rød sport had around 4,000–5,000 members.
