career

The 21-year-old attacker came to the former Gauligist Schweinfurt 05 via the stations TSV Straubing and local rivals VfR 07 Schweinfurt in the 1950/51 season. He still played with the likes of Andreas Kupfer , Jakob Lotz and Paul Gorski . With the team from the industrial city of Lower Franconia, the initial left winger and later longtime left winger in the World Cup system at that time was active for 13 years in the highest league in southern Germany. As a 34-year-old veteran, he finished after the 1963/64 season - it was the first year of the new Bundesliga and its substructureFootball Regionalliga Süd - after 20 regional league appearances, his higher-class career.

He made his debut on August 20, 1950 in a 2-0 away defeat against SpVgg Fürth in the Oberliga Süd. Together with “Ander” Kupfer and Ludwig Merz, he formed the runner row of the zero five, which primarily had to compete with the inner storm of the “Kleeblatt-Elf” with Karl Mai , Horst Schade and Max Appis . Paul Gorski was the main player in the left wing position, the newcomer had to make do with seven appearances (1 goal) in his first season. The duels against the two Middle Franconian clubs of SpVgg Fürth and 1. FC Nürnberg were outstanding. From his second league year, 1951/52, Aumeier was an integral part of the core formation of the green and black from the Willy Sachs Stadium .

Aumeier experienced his best season result with Schweinfurt under coach Fritz Teufel in the 1954/55 round , when the zero five finished third with the same number of points as runner-up SSV Reutlingen. Lower Franconia started the round on August 22, 1954 at Karlsruher SC with an 8-2 defeat. After the first half of the season, Aumeier and colleagues were eighth with 15:15 points. In the second half of the season, 22:8 points were scored with 27:18 goals and thus reached third place. Left wing Aumeier had played all 30 games and scored twelve. He scored three goals in the 6-2 win against the Stuttgarter Kickers on matchday five, on matchday 30 he stood out as a two-time goalscorer in the 2-0 away win against Bayern Munich and in the catch-up game on May 1, 1955, he scored the goal for the 2-0 final against Fürth. In the 1957/58 season he scored 13 goals in 29 league games and finished eighth with Schweinfurt. On June 20, 1957 he was substituted by national coach Sepp Herberger in a test match between a DFB-A-Elf against a DFB-B-Elf in the second half on the side of the B selection for left winger Heinz Vollmar . Nine days later, on June 29th, he was used in a representative game between southern Germany and northern Germany in Karlsruhe. In the 2-2 draw, the left winger from Schweinfurt scored a goal.

Aumeier, who was mostly used as an outside runner in his later years, played his last league game on April 28, 1963 in a 1: 5 away defeat against 1. FC Nürnberg. Now teammates such as goalkeeper Günter Bernard , Rolf Kupfer and Rolf Schweighöfer were at his side. Schweinfurt finished eleventh under coach Käser and Aumeier had played his last 26 league games out of a total of 320 for Schweinfurt.

Fritz Käser - former long-time Oberliga goalkeeper of the zero five - was also in the first year of the second-rate regional football league South, 1963/64 , coach and veteran Aumeier played another 20 league games for Schweinfurt 05. With the home game on March 8, 1964 against ESV Ingolstadt , he ended his 14-year playing activity at Schweinfurt 05. Son Harald (born July 19, 1952) continued his football career in later years.
