Club career
After joining Brondby IF in 2007 Roddik Hansen won the Danish championship in her first season with the club. She was named club Player of the Year in 2008. She scored seven goals for Brondby in a total of 78 appearances across all competitions.
Copenhagen-born Roddik Hansen left Brondby IF for newly promoted Damallsvenskan club Tyreso FF ahead of the 2010 season, rejecting a competing offer from the American Women's Professional Soccer (WPS). She spent three seasons playing at left-back, before moving inside to centre back when the Swedish club signed Sara Thunebro in 2013.
Tyreso dramatically won the Damallsvenskan title for the first time in the 2012 season and Roddik Hansen collected her first league winner's medal. She played in Tyreso's 4–3 defeat by Wolfsburg in the 2014 UEFA Women's Champions League Final.
Tyreso suffered a financial implosion in 2014 and withdrew from the 2014 Damallsvenskan season, expunging all their results and making all their players free agents. The Stockholm County Administrative Board published the players' salaries, showing Roddik Hansen was one of the lower paid players, at SEK 25 000 per month.
In July 2014, Roddik Hansen signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with reigning Damallsvenskan champions, FC Rosengard, of Malmo.
International career
On 25 February 2006 Roddik Hansen made her senior Denmark debut, playing the second half of a 3–2 friendly win in Switzerland.
She was the youngest member of the Danish squad at the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup in China at the age of 19 but did not appear in any matches. At UEFA Women's Euro 2009 in Finland Roddik Hansen played in all three group games as Denmark made a first round exit.
In 2010 she was named Danish Football Player of the Year.
The 2013 Algarve Cup match against Germany marked Roddik Hansen's 75th international cap. She was named in national coach Kenneth Heiner-Moller's squad for UEFA Women's Euro 2013.
Personal life
Roddik Hansen graduated from Gymnastik- och idrottshogskolan in June 2013, with a qualification in sports coaching.
