Camilla Dalby (born 15 May 1988)[2] is a former Danish team handball player who played the Danish women's national handball team.

Career

[edit]

Dalby started playing handball at Spentrup IF, before joining Randers Freja and later Randers HK in 2010.[3]

With Randers she came second in the Damehåndboldligaen in 2009 and won the EHF Cup in 2010.[4] In 2012 she won the Danish championship with the club.[5]

In 2013 she joined ŽRK Budućnost on a two year deal.[6] On 10 May 2015, she won her first Champions League trophy with ŽRK Budućnost.[5] The following season she returned to Randers HK.[7]

In 2018 she missed most of the season due to pregnancy.[8] She made her comeback in 2019, but did not manage to play well and had a hard time adapting to head coach Niels Agesens playing style.[5] She retired in 2019, despite having a contract until 2021.[5]

National team

[edit]

She debuted for the Danish national team on 17 October 2007.[9]

At the 2010 European Women's Handball Championship she reached the bronze final and placed fourth with the Danish team.[10]

At the 2013 World Championship, she was a part of the Danish team that won bronze medals, breaking a 9 year streak without medals for the Danish team. They beat Poland 30-26.[11]

Personal life

[edit]

In October 2017, she announced that she is expecting her first child. She was due in April 2018, meaning she did not play the remainder of the season for Randers HK.[8]

After her handball career she has worked as a physiotherapist.[12]
