Sigurður starred for Körfuknattleiksfélag Reykjavíkur (KFR) for more than a decade. On 17 March 1962, he scored 30 points in a victory against KR.[1] In the fall of 1965, he helped KR win the annual Reykjavík City Tournament, which at the time was the second most important basketball competition in the country.[2] In 1970, the club merged into Knattspyrnufélagið Valur and became its basketball department.[3] Sigurður continued to play for the team under the new name, but decided to retire at the end of the 1971 season, citing his age and negative writings in certain newspapers towards him and other players.[4]
