career

Amateur and Regionalliga Südwest, until 1968

The attacker "Charly" Tripp went through the youth department at the blue-whites of VfL Marburg and gained his first experience in the senior division in the 1st amateur league Hessen . In the 1964/65 round, the 20-year-old from the central Hessian university town accepted the offer from the south-west regional division FSV Mainz 05 , where former VfL team-mate Kurt Sauer had landed in 1963 and the older Tripp brother, Georg , was third in the league , should come to round 1966/67. Marburg was a source for high-class football during this period. As early as 1962 Georg Tripp and Richard Weber went from VfL to 1. FC Köln and Eintracht Frankfurt, respectively, at the Bundesliga start in 1963/64 the youth national and later long-time Bundesliga player Klaus Zaczyk signed a licensed player contract with Karlsruher SC, which for the 1967/68 season also for Günter Keifler , who played in the Bundesliga at Eintracht Frankfurt from that point on, was true .

Under FSV coach Heinz Baas , the attacker from Marburg made his debut on August 9, 1964 in a 1-1 away draw against FK Pirmasens in the Regionalliga Südwest. In the 88th minute of the game, Tripp scored the 1-1 equalizer. For the 05er, the round of 1964/65 in the second year of the second-class Regionalliga Südwest did not go as desired. The eleventh place in the table at the end of the round did not satisfy the club, coach, team and fans. "Charly" Tripp scored eleven goals and took third place in the scorers' list behind left winger Vincenz Fuchs (13) and midfielder Günther Dutine (12). The highlight, however, were the games in the DFB Cup in 1965. In the first main round on January 16, 1965, Mainz scored a 1-0 home win in front of 12,000 spectators against the Bundesliga autumn champions and later German champions SV Werder Bremen. In the round of 16, the Baas-Elf parted in front of 20,000 spectators with a 2-2 draw after extra time against the "Löwen" trained by Max Merkel from TSV Munich 1860. In the replay on February 17, 1965, "Charly" Tripp scored 85. Minute the winning goal to 2-1 against "Löwen" goalkeeper Petar Radenković . Ten days later, on February 27th, 1. FC Nürnberg prevailed in the quarter-finals in front of 24,000 spectators after a 0-0 halftime score with a 3-0 win at the Bruchweg Stadium .

In his second year in Mainz, 1965/66, "Charly" Tripp turned out to be the hoped-for goalscorer with 24 goals. Newcomer Horst Hülß , acting as a playmaker behind the top, significantly increased the quality of the combination game, which also benefited Dutine (14) and Manfred Nehren (10) alongside the young center forward. At the end of the lap, Mainz took third place. The contract of the coach Baas, who had been in office since the 1959/60 season, was not renewed and in the 1966/67 round, Kurt Zaro was appointed as the new trainer. The younger Tripp received emotional support from brother Georg from Offenbach, both brothers adorned the front page of the kicker in April 1966 with the headline: The Tripps want to score 50 goals, but Karl-August didn't make it with his 16 goals the quota of the previous year approaches. Nevertheless, he was the leader of the internal goalscorer list of the 05er in front of left wing Walter Gaußmann with nine goals. In terms of sport, things didn't go well after the coaching change. After twelve match days, the former A-junior coach Walter Sonnenberger replaced the Baas successor Zaro. Things were looking up again and “Charly” Tripp immediately contributed three goals to the 4-0 away win at FC Homburg. At the end of the lap, the FSV took fourth place. Due to the surprisingly strong season of local rivals SV Weisenau in third place, the good placement almost went under in the perception.

In his fourth year in Mainz, 1967/68, the striker's hit rate fell significantly - a transfer to Bayern Munich was broken despite the signing of a contract - with eight goals. Under the new coach Erich Bäumler , brother Georg headed the list of goalscorers with 18 goals and was on the ball in all 30 league games. The 05er played in the fight for second place against the rivals TuS Neuendorf and FK Pirmasens with the first round balance of 21: 9 points, but at the top of the table SV Alsenborn drew its circles by far. The “village club” around the goal- scoring attackers Lorenz Horr (24 goals) and Jürgen Schieck (31 goals) could not be stopped on the way to the championship. The FSV defeated TuS Neuendorf 1-0 in the second half of the season, but the Koblenz team won the runner-up ahead of Pirmasens and Mainz 05. “Charly” Tripp played his last game for Mainz 05 on May 4, 1968 at 2-2 Home draw against master Alsenborn when he brought his team to a 2-1 lead in the 47th minute of the game. After 105 regional league appearances with 60 goals - a total of 154 appearances for Mainz - he ended his activity in Mainz in the summer of 1968 and joined VfL Osnabrück in the football regional league north for the 1968/69 season.

VfL Osnabrück, 1968 to 1974

Under coach Radoslav Momirski , Tripp played in midfield in Osnabrück. He relied on the athletic storm tank Wolfgang Kaniber in the lead and on the two wingers Willi Mumme and Carsten Baumann . The main support from midfield came from "Charly" Tripp (23-7) and Herbert Schröder (26-11). The team from Bremer Brücke won the championship with a goal difference of 94:27 and 53:11 points by nine points. In the promotion round, Tripp and colleagues failed only at the western vice Rot-Weiss Essen. In his second year with the purple-whites, 1969/70, the former striker made the move to Libero and head of defense. In 27 games with two goals, he helped to defend his title. He won the third championship with VfL in 1970/71 under coach Fritz Langner . In the promotion round, however, he and his teammates had to acknowledge the superiority of VfL Bochum. With the new coach Erwin Türk it was enough for the runner-up in the north in 1972 and 1973, but the western representatives Wuppertaler SV - "Charly" Tripp described the Wuppertaler as by far the best team we had ever played against in a promotion round - and RWE set get through in the promotion rounds. In total, “Charly” Tripp played 40 games with Osnabrück from 1969 to 1973 in the promotion rounds and scored five goals.

For the last year of the old second-rate Regionalliga Nord, 1973/74, the former coach of Hamburger SV, Klaus-Dieter Ochs , took over the post in Osnabrück. On September 16, 1973, at the home game against Barmbek-Uhlenhorst, Tripp suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon. In the second half of the season, on April 28 and May 5, 1974, he was substituted on in the final minutes. In 1973/74 there were eight games with three goals in the total for him. Altogether Tripp is led with 149 regional league appearances with 19 goals for Osnabrück. In July / August 1974 he made another attempt to achieve his previous performance. After being substituted on August 28 in the 2-0 away defeat against Hannover 96, the "model professional" ended his active career after two games in the 2nd Bundesliga and after a total of 192 league matches with 22 goals between 1968 and 1974. On October 31, 1974, his current contract with VfL Osnabrück was terminated.

He then worked as a player coach at VfL Kloster Oesede until 1978.

The former civil servant in the Osnabrück employment office now lives with his wife in Hasbergen near Osnabrück.
