Trude Margaret Stendal (born 30 May 1963) is a Norwegian former footballer. She played as a forward for Toppserien club IL Sandviken and the Norway women's national football team. She scored twice in the Norwegians' 2–1 win over Sweden in the final of the 1987 European Competition for Women's Football.[1] During her football career Stendal also worked in a bank. She trained as a nurse when injury brought about her premature retirement from football.[2]

Stendal had injured her knee in a match against the United States a month after the Euro 1987 final. After making her comeback, she broke her leg in a 1991 Norwegian Women's Cup match against Trondheims-Ørn and was forced to retire.[3]
