Vegard Skogheim (born 28 April 1966) is a Norwegian football coach and former midfielder.

During his active career he played for HamKam, Werder Bremen and Viking. He has a total of 197 matches and 36 goals in the Norwegian Premier League. Skogheim played 13 matches for the Norwegian national football team and scored one goal.

As a coach he has been in charge of Lillehammer and Brumunddal, and has been managing Kongsvinger with success, securing promotion from Second Division in 2003, and almost repeating the feat in First Division in 2004. During winter 2006, Kongsvinger informed him, they would not sign him up for another contract, and thus he made his exit, joining former Lillestrøm coach Arne Erlandsen in his old club HamKam on 13 November 2006. Here, he acted as a player developer and assistant coach. On 11 June 2009, Skogheim was appointed new head coach of HamKam.^[2] He resigned after three games of the 2014 Norwegian First Division.^[3]
