Rosenborg Ballklub is an association football club which currently competes in Eliteserien (formerly known as Tippeligaen) from Trondheim, Trøndelag, central Norway and, at the same time, the most important in the country by far, both in terms of domestic performances as well as in terms of European record, thus surpassing close rivals Molde by a significant extent. With its rich history and tradition, the team has participated in 32 seasons of Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) club competitions, including 21 seasons in the European Cup and Champions League (UCL), 16 seasons in the UEFA Cup and Europa League (UEL), one season in the Cup Winners' Cup, and one season in the Intertoto Cup. In addition, the club had also participated in two editions of the new UEFA competition UEFA Europa Conference League (UECL). Their home stadium is Lerkendal.
