Skammelsrud played 272 matches for Rosenborg BK in the Norwegian Premier League, scoring 57 goals. Before joining Rosenborg, he had played for Drøbak/Frogn, Frigg, and the Swedish club Malmö FF.[1] He also played 38 matches for the Norwegian national team, scoring seven goals.[2] He was in roster for Euro 2000.
Except from his debut season in 1991, Skammelsrud won the Norwegian Premier League every season as a Rosenborg player. He was captain of the team for several seasons and a key player in the club's UEFA Champions League matches during the last half of the 1990s. He played for Bayer Leverkusen for a very short period, before he returned to Rosenborg because of family reasons.
Skammelsrud retired after the 2002 season, unwillingly, after Åge Hareide didn't renew his contract with the club.
