[edit]

Bjørn Rime grew up in Fagernes and played youth football for Fagernes IL before transferring to SK Gjøvik-Lyn in February 1960.[2] He was selected for a youth national team training camp in 1963.[3] He played for SK Gjøvik-Lyn when the club was in the Norwegian top division in the 1963 season.

In the spring of 1966 Rime played for Nor in Narvik, due to his being stationed in the area for military service.[4][5] In the latter half of 1966 he featured for Gjøvik-Lyn again, but resided in Oslo and trained with Skeid during the winter break. Gjøvik-Lyn secured his services for 1967 as well.[6]

He came to in Rosenborg in 1968 and quickly became regular as defender.[7] Rime was capped once for Norway national football team in a match versus Iceland in 1971.[8]
