Playing career


Sverre started his career with KA at the age of 16 and helped the team win the Icelandic Cup in 1995 and the Icelandic championship in 1997.[3] He won the national championship again in 2006 with Fram.[4]


Coaching career


Sverre was hired as player-coach for Akureyri Handboltafélag in 2014.[5]

In 2017, the club was relegated from the Úrvalsdeild.[6] and shortly after, KA decided to break off from the cooperation and fielded their own team starting from 2017–2018. Þór continued to run its men's team under the Akureyri name[7] and in 2018, the team finished first in 1. deild karla and was promoted back to the Úrvalsdeild along with KA, which finished second.[8]

On 28 December 2018, Akureyri fired Sverre from his position as head coach.[9]

In 2019, Sverre was hired as an assistant coach to KA. On 6 April 2019 he appeared in KA's last game of the season at the age of 42, stating that it was the final game of his playing career.[10]
