The five junior players are allowed to play up to three matches in the Premiership without a professional contract and the club does not have to pay training compensations (link) to the players former clubs.[10] This was a new rule set by the Norwegian FA to make it easier for clubs to utilise young national players on the highest level of Norwegian football.
- March 20: Brann opened the season with a 2-1 upset win against reigning champions Rosenborg.
