He played most of his career at TTH Holstebro where he was for 15 years only interrupted for a single season at Ribe-Esbjerg HH in 2014.[2] He played 354 for the TTH Holstebro.[3]

He had initially retired in 2017 to pursue a career as engineer, but came out of retirement when he was contacted by the top Bundesliga club SG Flensburg-Handewitt in the summer 2017, where he signed a 6-month contract to be a back-up to the Swedish player Matias Andersson.[4] Before being contacted by Flensburg-Handewitt his plan was to play part-time handball at the Danish 1st Division club Langhøj KFUM.[5]

After his contract in Germany expired he returned in 2018 to Danish handball to join Ribe-Esbjerg HH. He was however only on a part-time contract to have time to pursue his engineer career.[6][7]
