Øvrevoll Hosle IL is a Norwegian multi-sport club from eastern Bærum. It offers bandy, baseball, football, ski jumping, cross-country skiing, and handball, and the team colors are white. The club serves Øvrevoll, Voll, Grav, parts of Bekkestua and Jar, and Hosle.

It was founded on 26 September 2007 as a merger of Øvrevoll BK and Hosle IL. Hosle IL began in 1947 as Grav og Voll IL, later becoming IL Bæring and then Hosle after merging with Bæring and Hosletoppen. Øvrevoll BK started in 1955 as Øvrevollkameratene. The football and bandy teams had cooperated long before the merger.

The men’s bandy team plays in the First Division (second tier) and reached the Premier League in 2005–06. The men’s football team played in the Fourth tier (Third Division) until 2010, when it folded for lack of players.

Notable former players include footballer Andreas Hauger and Siri Nordby (women’s football). Handballer Karoline Dyhre Breivang also started there, and ski jumper Bjørn Einar Romøren is the club’s best-known member.
