Ulla-Karin Rönnlund (née Thelin; born 19 February 1977) is a Swedish former football goalkeeper for Umeå IK in the Swedish Damallsvenskan. She represented Sweden at senior international level.

Club career

[edit]

After suffering injuries during the 2001 season Rönnlund lost her motivation for football and decided to leave Umeå.[2]

She retired again after the 2009 season, to concentrate on her family. As Söberg also left, Umeå IK signed Caroline Jönsson as a replacement.[3]

International career

[edit]

Rönnlund started playing for Sweden's national youth teams in 1993. At the 1995 edition of the Albena Cup, Rönnlund was pressed into service as a makeshift forward after a sickness bug swept through the Sweden under-20 squad. She scored the winning goal in the 1–0 final win over Ukraine.[4]

Rönnlund played seven times for Sweden's national team. She made her senior international debut against Norway on 10 October 1998.
