Club career

Tomter began playing in the boys' teams at her local club Drøbak-Frogn, then joined Kolbotn aged 13.[2] She progressed into Kolbotn's Toppserien team[3] before signing a three-year contract with Avaldsnes in December 2015.[4]

In August 2017, she signed a year contract with Dutch Eredivisie club FC Twente.[5] In August 2018 she went back to Norway and Vålerenga.

International career

Tomter won 39 caps for Norway from under-15 to under-19 level. She made her senior debut in January 2014, a 2–1 friendly win over Spain at La Manga Stadium. A serious knee injury meant Tomter could not play at the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup,[6] but she returned to the national team for the UEFA Women's Euro 2017 qualifying series.
