Hailing from Vormsund, he is a younger brother of Geir Frigård. He played youth football for Fu/Vo and Lillestrøm SK. After his first senior season he continued his career in Eidsvold TF.[1][2][3] From 1994 to 1997 he played 66 league games and scored 8 goals for Stabæk. 7 of the goals came in the 1994 1. divisjon, 1 goal in Eliteserien. In 1997 he played only 6 minutes of league football, two cup games and two games in the 1997 UEFA Intertoto Cup, scoring against K.R.C. Genk.[4] He joined IK Start post-season.[5]

After a year in Start he joined FC Kärnten (then called Austria Klagenfurt) in January 1999.[6] After one and a half season there he played two seasons for SV Spittal[7] and two for SVG Bleiburg.[8] In 2004 he played for Ullensaker/Kisa IL, and from 2005 through 2008 for Eidsvold TF[9] while also working as a journalist in Raumnes.[10] Gaining a reputation as a muckraker journalist, in 2018 he was hired by Kommunal Rapport.[11]
