Michelle Brandstrup (born 24 September 1987)[1] is a Danish former handball player who last played for Ringkøbing Håndbold.
Brandstrup started playing Handball in her hometown at TMG Mårslet, and then moved on to Odder IGF followed by Brabrand IF. This prompted a move to the Norwegian club Våg Vipers, where she broke into the first team and got an important role. She returned to Denmark to play for Vejen EH on a 3-year contract, but the club went bankrupt after her first year back in Denmark. Therefore she had to find a new club and joined recently promoted Ringkøbing Håndbold,[2] where she played out the rest of her career.
She did initially announce her plan to end her career in 2020, but because said season was cut short by Covid-19, she was convined by her club Ringkøbing Håndbold to continue for one more year.[3]
