Ulf Camitz (born 25 October 1960) is a retired Swedish football midfielder and later manager.

Playing for several modest teams in Sweden and Norway, he also played first-tier football for Strømsgodset until they were relegated in 1991. After one year in Sandefjord he travelled north to Lofoten in 1995. [2] [3] Leading Lofoten as a player-manager to an unprecedented spell in the 1999 1. divisjon, he was sacked post-promotion for lacking formal qualifications. [4]

In 2000 he moved to Fauske/Sprint as manager. [5] In 2003 he coached Steigen and ahead of the 2007 season he took over Grand Bodø's women's team. [6] However, two days before the start of 2007 Toppserien he resigned, needing to prioritize his civic job when the coaching job took too much of his working week. [7]

In 2017 he was declared an honorary member of FK Lofoten. [8] In Strømsgodset too he is regarded as a club legend. [9]
