According to Tauber, Retter belonged to the Stuttgart gymnastics and sports fans from 1905 to 1923 and was deployed in the South German Football Association in the regional top division, the Württemberg regional league . While he was a member of the Sportfreunde club, he won the district championship once, in 1921/22, with two successes (1: 0, 3: 2) against the Stuttgarter Kickers and only failed in the final round of the South German championship in the semi-finals against Borussia Neunkirchen (0: 1). In the following round of 1922/23 it was only enough for the sports fans to rank 5th, and thus the green-whites rose by merging the previous two seasons with eight clubs each into a single-track with eight participants in the second division. The businessman moved to Dresden in the summer of 1923 for professional reasons and joined the "Mohnroten" team at Dresdner SC .

From 1923/24 to 1924/25 , Retter played alongside fellow players such as Georg Köhler , Rudolf Berthold and Richard Gedlich in the Gau Ostsachsen in the Association of Central German Ball Game Associations and took second and third place with the DSC.

He then returned to his Swabian homeland and played for VfB Stuttgart from 1925/26 . With the ex-national player, Willi Rutz and Karl Strehle also joined VfB . It was enough right away to runner-up in the Württemberg-Baden district league, Retter had played 14 games; In the South German Cup, the team around Retter played their way into the final after a 3-2 win after an extension in the semifinals against Munich 1860. That ended on August 1, 1926 against SpVgg Fürth with a 2: 3 defeat after extra time, but it was still a success for VfB.

In the 1926/27 season he added another title to his 1922 title; he was with the VfB champion of the district league before the Karlsruher FV and Stuttgarter Kickers. Retter had scored four goals for the master in 21 missions. In the final round of the South German Championship, it was only enough for 5th place, the coachless time from February 1927, when the former coach Edward T. Hanney had left Stuttgart, had a negative effect on the team's performance. In his third round at VfB, 1927/28, it was enough for a third place under coach Lajos Kovacs; Rescuer had been active again in 14 league games. He played at VfB from 1925 to 1928 with a total of 63 league and cup games (4 goals).

He ended his football career from 1928 to 1930 with SC Stuttgart.
