[edit] Club career

He made his debut in Faroese football at the age of 17 with HB Tórshavn as a defender in the 1986 season and remained loyal to the club for 10 years before he moved abroad to Danish side Ølstykke FC. He returned home after only one season to join KÍ Klaksvík and later HB again and B68.

[edit] International career

Dam made his debut for the Faroe Islands in an August 1990 friendly match against Iceland in which he immediately scored from the penalty spot after coming on as a substitute for Abraham Løkin Hansen. His second match was the historic 1-0 defeat of Austria, his country's first competitive match. His last international match was an April 2000 friendly match against Liechtenstein. He collected 39 caps, scoring 1 goal. ^[1]
