Heinz Schlömer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heinz Schlömer (born February 22, 1923 , † 1983 ) was a German soccer player. The defensive player completed a total of 226 league games in which he scored 32 goals at Preußen Dellbrück from 1949 to 1957 in the first-class West Football League . At the fusion club SC Viktoria Köln (Preußen Dellbrück / SC Rapid Köln ) there was another assignment in the 1957/58 season. In the 1949/50 season , Heinz Schlömer was runner-up in the Oberliga West with Prussia Dellbrück.

Career as a footballer

The two years younger brother of Willi Schlömer , after the relegation of Prussia Dellbrück from Oberliga West in 1947/48, came to the Black-Whites from the Dellbrück district of Cologne on the right bank of the Rhine via the VfL Poll station . In the Rhein district district league group 1, the team from the stadium "Et Höffje" on Bergisch Gladbacher-Strasse came second, won the game for 3rd place after extra time against SC West Cologne in the association championship Rhein district and was thus qualified for the relegation games to the Oberliga West. In Group 1, Dellbrück prevailed 2-1 against SpVgg Herten and Fortuna Düsseldorf and thus returned immediately to the Oberliga West.

Dellbrück took the momentum of the relegation into the start of the top division round in 1949/50. The round started with 6: 0 points, with 18:12 points they finished 3rd after the first round. Heinz Schlömer mainly acted as the middle runner, brother Willi as the right wing runner in the World Cup system that was played at the time . The last away game was surprisingly lost 6-0 at Preußen Münster on the penultimate game day, with the 4-1 home win on the last round game, May 7, 1950, against the guests from Würselen, Dellbrück reached the runner-up with 39:21 points . Local rivals 1. FC Köln lost 3-2 at Alemannia Aachen and even had to let Rot-Weiss Essen overtake them with 33:19 points. Thus the SC Prussia moved into the final round of the German soccer championship. Heinz Schlömer had completed all 30 round matches under coach Kurt Winkler and scored two goals.

In the final round, the West Vice-Chancellor first had to face the second in the French-occupied zone, SSV Reutlingen, in Koblenz on May 21. Left winger Walter Severin decided the game 1-0 for Dellbrück with his goal in extra time. With Fritz Herkenrath in goal, Karl Habets and Hans Paffrath in defense, as well as with the runner row Willi and Heinz Schlömer and Hermann Drost , the defensive held up and the game for Dellbrück could be decided with one goal. On June 4th, the reigning German champions VfR Mannheim waited for Prussia Dellbrück in Frankfurt. In front of 40,000 spectators in the Waldstadion, Drost decided the game for Dellbrück with his goal to make it 2-1 , while the final round was over for the defending champions from Mannheim around Rudolf de la Vigne , Kurt Keuerleber , Franz Islacker and Ernst Langlotz . Heinz Schlömer had directed the defense again as a middle runner. The semi-final game took place in Stuttgart on June 11th. Opponent was Kickers Offenbach who had prevailed 3-2 against Hamburger SV in the second round. The striker row of the Elf vom Bieberer Berg with Gerhard Kaufhold , Horst Buhtz , Emil Maier , Heinz Baas and Willi Weber pushed the Hessians to the role of favorites. The later national goalkeeper Fritz Herkenrath held everything that got through to the Dellbrücker goal through the good defensive, led by center runner Heinz Schlömer. After 120 minutes they parted with 0: 0; the replay took place on June 18 in the Niederrheinstadion in Oberhausen. Dellbrück, who had to contest the finals without the accurate attacker Kurt Hardt , fell 1-0 in the first minute of the game in front of 45,000 spectators. In the second half, Offenbach then finally prevailed with two more goals to win 3-0 and moved into the final. For Schlömer and the Prussians, reaching the semi-finals for the German soccer championship in 1950 was the greatest success in the club's history.

This was followed by seven rounds of league football in the western league, teammates such as Herbert Dörner , Hubert Franzen , Heinz Lorenz and Hans Löring joined them, and Heinz Schlömmer ended the 1956/57 season with eleven goals in 27 league appearances and the Prussians took 12th place. The actual Prussian era was over; by the merger of Prussia and SC Rapid, SC Viktoria Köln was created, which took over the Oberligaplatz of the Prussians for the 1957/58 season.

The 34-year-old Heinz Schlömer played one more game for Viktoria on October 13, 1957 and said goodbye to higher-class football with 227 league appearances and 32 goals.

Outside of football, Schlömer worked as a commercial clerk; after the end of his footballing career, he first ran a restaurant in Holweide . In 1960, together with his wife Mathilde, he opened the "Schlömer restaurant" in Poll, and from then on his hometown club VfL Poll used the restaurant as a club bar.
