Ola By Rise

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ola By Rise (born November 14, 1960 in Trondheim) is a Norwegian football coach and former player. He is currently assistant coach of the Norwegian national football team.

In his career as an active player, he was the goalkeeper of Rosenborg B.K. in Trondheim. From 1977 to 1995 he played 346 matches for Rosenborg in the Norwegian top league which was a national record at the time he retired. He also played 25 matches for the national team.

By Rise was the assistant coach of Rosenborg under the head coaches Trond Sollied (1998), Nils Arne Eggen (1999–2002) and Åge Hareide (2003). When Hareide quit in Rosenborg to become head coach of the Norwegian national team, By Rise became the head coach of Rosenborg in the 2004 season. Going into the 2004 season, Rosenborg had won 12 consecutive league titles. However, despite winning for a 13th consecutive season in 2004, the club had a relatively poor season by its high domestic standards, as it finished level on points and goal difference with Vålerenga, winning the title on goals scored. By Rise was sacked November 2004 by the club and worked for NRK radio station P1 as managing editor from February 1, 2005. On July 18, 2006, he was assigned as the new assistant coach for the Norwegian national team.

He has also had a professional career outside football as a journalist for Adresseavisen, the local newspaper in Trondheim.

By Rise was a member of the Norwegian team competing at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, California.
