Career

[edit]

Aagot made her prossional debut at København in 2018, and already in January 2018 she signed a 4-year contract at the club.[3] Until the 2019/2020 season, she shared playing time with the Dutch Debbie Bont, but afterwards she was the undisputed starter.[4] She transferred to Odense Håndbold in 2023. [5] In the 2024–25 season, she achieved a perfect regular season with Odense Håndbold, winning 26 of 26 games.[6] Later the same season she won the Danish Championship, when Odense beat Team Esbjerg in the final 2-1 in matches.[7]

She is a penalty throw specialist.[8]

National team

[edit]

She made her debut on the Danish national team on 1 October 2020, against Norway.[9]

She represented Denmark at the 2020 European Women's Handball Championship.[10] Her first medals for the senior national team came at the 2022 European Women's Handball Championship, when Denmark won silver medals.[11] A year later she won bronze medals at the 2023 World Women's Handball Championship. At the 2024 Olympics she won a bronze medal.[12] Later the same year, she won silver medals at the 2024 European Championship, losing to Norway in the final.[13]

At the 2025 World Women's Handball Championship Denmark went out in the quarterfinal to France after winning all matches in the group stages. The Danish team was affected by a lot of players missing the tournament including goalkeepers Sandra Toft and Althea Reinhardt and pivots Sarah Iversen and Rikke Iversen. This was the first time since 2019 that Denmark left a major international tournament without any medals.[14]

She uses Aagot as her surname when she plays handball.[15]
