Cathinka Cecilie Friis Tandberg (born 18 June 2004) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a forward for Hammarby IF in the Swedish Damallsvenskan.[1]

She started her youth career at age 5 in IL Heming, and played with various boys' teams. When starting to play on the girls' team, it was the team for players born in 2001. In 2018 she moved to Stabæk, but did not make it to the first team. She moved to Lyn in 2020 and was given a place in the senior team, while attending Wang sport school from age 16.[2]

Ahead of the 2023 season, she moved abroad to Damallsvenskan, the Swedish title challengers Linköpings FC.[3] She performed well throughout the season.[4] In November 2023 she scored 6 goals in a match against IFK Kalmar.[5]

Following the withdrawals of several players, Tandberg was called up for Norway for the 2023-24 UEFA Women's Nations League matches against France.[4]

In August 2024, she signed with Swedish club Hammarby IF a contract during the summer transfer window until 2027.[6]
