Manager career

After ending his professional career, he came out of retirement to play the latter part of 2005 for SK Vard Haugesund. A back injury ruled him out already in August 2005. [3] [4] He was then hired as assistant manager of IL Sandviken's female team under head coach Arne Møller. [5] Their stint ended in the summer of 2006, and Bakkerud was available to play for Løv-Ham. [6] He was wanted as manager of Løv-Ham ahead of the 2007 season, [7] but ended up as player-manager of Norheimsund while also taking a 30% position as director of sports in Løv-Ham. By chance, these two teams faced each other in the 2007 Norwegian Football Cup. [8] [9] He resigned in Løv-Ham after the 2007 season. [10]

In mid-2008 he was hired as player developed in his former club Helsingborg. [11] After three and a half years he took the same role in Brann, [12] only to embark on a manager career in Fredrikstad one year later. [13] Both Lars Bakkerud and director of sports Joacim Jonsson soon found themselves on illness absence, opening for Håkon Wibe-Lund as caretaker manager. When Bakkerud still had not returned at the end of the season, his contract was terminated. [14] [15]

Ahead of the 2014 season Bakkerud moved back to the Bergen Region as director of sports in Os TF. [16] In mid-2015 he relocated to his native Vestfold as manager of Ørn-Horten. [17] After a bad start in the 2016 2. divisjon he resigned his position. [18] In 2017 he was ready for another club in the region, FK Tønsberg, where he became player developer, [19] director of sports and coach.

Personal life

He married footballer Elin Hopland in the summer of 1996. [20]
