2020 season

On january 6, Skeid signed Gard Holme as the new head Coach following the relegation from OBOS-ligaen in 2019. Skeid also lost 8 players from the most used starting lineup in 2019 (some signed by other clubs while others hanged up their boots), and due to a strict economy Skeid signed new players from 2. and 3. divisjon.

The season was put on hold at the start of the year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and didn't start until july. When it first started it was with a reduced schedule, with the 14 teams in the division facing each other once, with the top 7 teams going into a Promotion Playoff, while the bottom 7 teams would be going into a Relegation Playoff.

During the season Skeid played home games at 3 different venues due to problematic circumstances regarding the articifial turf at Nordre Åsen. Therefore, Skeid played some home games at Valhall Arena and LSK-Hallen.

Skeid ended the regular sesong on 3.place in the table and therefore qualified for the Promotion Playoff. Skeid ended the playoffs in 2.place and qualifed for a double header with Asker. After 1-1 in both games, the last game went to a penalty shootout, and Asker were victorious with the score 4-2, and ended Skeids season.

Many supporters saw the season in total as a success, due to the loss of key players before the season started, the signing of a new head coach and the trouble with the home ground.
