Georg Lechner played since 1961 in the Soccer-Oberliga Süd for TSV Schwaben Augsburg . In the 1960/61 season he was runner-up with TSV Schwaben - the local rival BC Augsburg won the championship - the 2nd League South rose to the top division. On August 6, 1961, Georg Lechner's nephew made his debut in the away game against Kickers Offenbach as a center forward in the former World Cup system in the Oberliga Süd. The two derbies against the BCA with Helmut Haller , Herbert Ammer and Walter Rauh decided the purple-white Swabians 2-0 and 1-0 for themselves. In the last year of the old first-class league system, 1962/63, Lechner was also active in the last game on April 28, 1963, in the 2-1 away win at Eintracht Frankfurt, and scored a goal like left winger Erwin Metzger . For the Swabians, he completed all 60 league games in the two years of the Oberliga and scored 28 goals. As a result of the newly introduced football league from 1963/64, Schwaben Augsburg played the association games in the Regionalliga Süd from this season . With the attacker Kurt Haseneder (33-17), who came from 1. FC Nürnberg , he formed a dangerous duo. On the third match day, August 18, 1963, TSV Schwaben defeated the eventual champions KSV Hessen Kassel with 7-2 goals. Haseneder with three and Lechner with two goals were the outstanding strikers of this encounter. On the tenth game day, October 13th, a 3-1 victory was achieved against Kickers Offenbach on the Bieberer Berg. Lechner had to do with middle runner Hermann Nuber and Sigfried Held checked the Swabian defensive. The second round match was won against Kassel with 5: 3 goals in front of 30,000 spectators in the Auestadion. The two other top games in the second half of the season against Offenbach and Bayern Munich each ended with a 2-2 draw. Lechner played 35 games and scored 18 goals. TSV Schwaben took fourth place behind Kassel, Bayern Munich and Offenbach. His talent was recognized by his appointment to the junior national team of the DFB on November 27, 1963 in Liverpool at the international match against England.

Eintracht coach Ivica Horvat had called the attack with Helmut Kraus , Lechner, Erwin Stein, Wilhelm Huberts and Lothar Schämer . In the second half of the season Lechner was active in all games for Eintracht. The technician with scoring qualities had a great day on March 6, 1965 at the reigning German champions 1. FC Köln. Eintracht won the away game against the defending champion with 4: 3 goals and Lechner advanced to “the best man on the pitch” with three goals.

With Lindner, Lechner formed the midfield axis and scored a goal. In the 6-0 home win on September 11, 1965 against 1. FC Kaiserslautern, he distinguished himself as a three-time goalscorer.
