National successes

Annemarie Hähnsch played for the Blau-Gold Dresden club in the early 1930s. At the national German championships she was mostly in the shadow of the players Hilde Bussmann , Astrid Krebsbach and Trude Pritzi . Therefore she reached “only” third place in the individual in 1932 , 1934 , 1936 and 1941 . She had her greatest success in 1938 when she reached the final in the singles and was defeated here by the naturalized Austrian Trude Pritzi.

In 1932 and 1934 she took part in the world championships, but in 1932 only in the individual competitions, as no team competitions were offered for women. Both times she made it to the second round in singles and in doubles to the quarterfinals. In 1934 she became world champion with the German women's team. It was used twice. She did not play any other international matches in her career.
