Club career edit
Ingrid Ødegård started her professional career in Sola HK, Stavanger. After three seasons with the club, she received an offer from Larvik HK and started playing for the Norwegian champion in 2005. With Larvik, she won the Norwegian Championship several times and the Cup Winners' Cup in 2008. However, being the substitute of Lene Rantala, Ødegård could not enjoy much playing time. In 2008, she left Larvik and moved to Denmark to play for FCM Håndbold[2] and in 2012 went on to play for HC Odense. After returning to the Norwegian league in 2014, and playing for Byåsen HE, Ødegård announced in late December 2015 that she is pregnant yet again and has decided to retire.[3]
