career

Dessau, until 1947

Via the stations in Wittenberg and Piesteritz , Trenkel came to LSV Kochstedt at the beginning of the Second World War , from which he joined the Gauligist SV Dessau 05 with his colleagues Heinrich Nehlsen and Herbert Schwiesau at the end of 1939. Ex-national player Karl Höger has been coaching there since 1937 . With the black and white team from the Schillerpark Stadium , he won the championship in the Gauliga Mitte in 1942 and 1943. Trenkel and colleagues won the title in 1942/43 with a balance of 33: 3 points and a goal difference of 104: 20 goals. In the final round of the German soccer championship in 1942 , Trenkel, who could be used in attack as well as defense, played half right on Walter's side in the games against RSG Fulda (2: 0) and Blau-Weiß 90 Berlin (0: 3) Elze , Hans Manthey and Hellmut Schmeißer on duty. In the Tschammer Cup of 1942 he was attacking Dessau in the games against Eintracht Braunschweig (2: 0), Döbelner SC (5: 3), Hamburger SV (4: 3; HSV with Erwin Seeler , Esegel Melkonian , Rudolf Noack ) and in the 4-0 defeat in the quarter-finals on September 27, 1942 against FC Schalke 04 with their top performers Heinz Flotho , Otto Tibulski , Ernst Kalwitzki , Hermann Eppenhoff , Fritz Szepan and Adolf Urban . Trenkel scored five goals in the four games.

In the final round of the German championship in 1943 , the game stood out on May 2 in front of 20,000 spectators against the eventual German champions Dresdner SC . In the narrow 1: 2 home defeat Trenkel formed the runner row with Heinz Gehlert and Hans Manthey and they had to do with the DSC indoor storm around Heinrich Schaffer , Helmut Schön and Richard Hofmann in the World Cup system at that time.

On November 9, 1941, he was appointed to the central association selection, which won the Reichsbund Cup in Stuttgart against the representatives of Württemberg - Edmund Conen , Albert Sing - with 6: 4 goals. Club colleagues Gehlert, Manthey, Nehlsen and Schmeißer were also part of the winning team.

In a ranking list of German football in early 1943 in the "Football Week", Trenkel was ranked eighth in the half right position. Schmeißer was listed as the right runner in eleventh place and center runner Gehlert in 12th place.

Oberliga Nord, 1947 to 1950

After the Second World War, Trenkel came from SG Dessau-Nord to Hamburger SV for the debut season of the North Football League, 1947/48. Under coach Hans Tauchert , the man from Dessau made his debut on November 30, 1947, in a 2-0 win in front of 35,000 spectators against championship rivals FC St. Pauli , on right wing in the league. Trenkel had recently come to Hamburg from Dessau and Helmut Schön joined the team from Millerntor as a middle runner. The attack by the "Rothosen" consisted of Trenkel, Alfred Boller (two-time goalscorer), Edmund Adamkiewicz , Heinz Bung Bottle and Erich Ebeling . Boller scored both goals after crosses from Heinz Trenkel. St. Pauli and HSV finished the league round tied with 37: 7 points each - Trenkel had scored two goals in 14 games - and in the deciding game on May 2, the "Rautträger" with left wing Trenkel prevailed with 2: 1 goals. In the three games for the British Zone Championship against Hamborn 07 (1: 0), Eintracht Braunschweig (3: 2) and on June 13 in the final against St. Pauli (6: 1), Trenkel was each left winger and scored two Gates. In the final round of the German football championship on July 18 against SpVgg Neuendorf, which surprisingly was lost with 1: 2 goals, he was absent due to injury.

The second season at HSV, 1948/49, brought Trenkel to reunion with his former playmate from Dessau, Hellmut Schmeißer, the beginning of Herbert Wojtkowiak's scoring days and, as another new addition, right winger Manfred Krüger . HSV opened the round on August 29, 1948 with a 7-1 win against TuS Bremerhaven 93. Trenkel contributed four hits on half right. Vinke noted: “He shone as a preparer and four-time goalscorer.” At the end of the round, Trenkel had scored nine goals in 21 league games and HSV and St. Pauli were tied with 32:12 points each leading the table. On the last league match day, April 24, 1949, Trenkel was still one of the goalscorers in the 4-1 home win against Göttingen 05. In the playoff against St. Pauli (5: 3) and the game in the final round of the German championship against VfR Mannheim (0: 5), he was not used.

In his third year with Hamburger SV, 1949/50 , a new coach came with Georg Knöpfle and brought Jupp Posipal with him to the Elbe from Arminia Hannover . In addition, the HSV strengthened with Rolf Rohrberg and Werner Harden on the offensive. Heinz Trenkel now took over the position of right defender and completed all 30 league games when winning the championship in the Oberliga Nord with a nine point lead over long-term rivals FC St. Pauli.

Before the final round of the German championship, HSV flew from April 13 to May 26, 1950 on a “goodwill tour” to the United States of America. In addition to six games, the program also included a tour of the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building, as well as visits to Milwaukee and Lake Michigan. Just back from the USA, Trenkel and colleagues prevailed with a 7-0 win on May 28 against Union Oberschöneweide in the first final game. Eight days later, the North German champions lost against Kickers Offenbach in Düsseldorf with 2: 3 goals after a 2: 0 half-time lead. Trenkel had played as right defender in both games.

On April 4, 1948 and March 13, 1949 Trenkel had played two representative games in the NFV selection against the West German and South German selection. After 65 league appearances with twelve goals, the 31-year-old Heinz Trenkel signed a contract with the Karlsruhe district club VfB Mühlburg for round 1950/51 and switched to the football league south .

Oberliga Süd, 1950 to 1953

With the 4-2 home win on December 25, 1950 against Kickers Offenbach, Mühlburg took over the championship lead in the southern league after 17 matchdays with 24:10 points. Trenkel mostly ran as the left wing and put Horst Buhtz, the most dangerous attacker on the offensive. With the 1: 3 home defeat on the 33rd matchday against FC Schweinfurt 05, Mühlburg missed out on the finals. The round was completed as third in the table and Trenkel had completed all 34 league games. He represented the colors of southern Germany in the representative game on March 18, 1951 in Hamburg during the game against northern Germany. In the 4-2 success of the South German selection, he stormed with club colleague Buhtz on the left wing. His performance was recognized by the appointment of national coach Sepp Herberger in the first international match of the German B-national soccer team on April 14, 1951 in Karlsruhe against Switzerland. In the 2-0 defeat, he formed the German runner row together with Hans Haferkamp and Paul Matzkowski .

The round in 1951/52 ended the Mühlburg in ninth place and the 33-year-old Trenkel had scored ten goals in 27 league games. The veteran played his last league game on April 26, 1953 in the 2: 3 home defeat in the ranks of the club, now known as Karlsruher SC after the merger between Mühlburg and Phoenix Karlsruhe, against Kickers Offenbach. The KSC attack consisted of Ernst Kunkel , Trenkel, Lothar Bechtel , Günther Rau and Hans Strittmatter and Kickers center forward Helmut Preisendörfer stood out as a three-time goalscorer for Hessen. At the age of 34, Heinz Trenkel ended his long playing career in the summer of 1953.

Trainer

Trenkel had successfully completed his training as a football teacher in 1952 and took over the coaching position at the Karlsruhe district association ASV Durlach for the 1953/54 season . With the elf from the Tower Mountain Stadium, he finished in the then second division of the 2nd League South to 10th place . Son Wilfried was born on November 3, 1953 . When the course of the first half of the season turned out to be clearly negative in the second year, Trenkel and ASV Durlach separated before the beginning of the second half of the season. After a short interlude with the amateurs of the Karlsruher SC Trenkel took over the Offenburg FV in the Amateur League South Baden for the 1955/56 season .

After two runners-up championships, he won the championship with Offenburg for the first time in 1958 and moved into the promotion round to the 2nd South League. The rise was not successful against the competitors VfB Friedberg, 1. FC Bamberg, VfL Neckarau and Union Böckingen. With the Red-Whites from the Karl-Heitz Stadium, he repeated winning the championship in South Baden in 1960 and 1961, but failed again in the promotion rounds.

After nine years as a trainer, he resigned from his position in the summer of 1964 and took over the training management of the youth department of the Offenburg FV. In 1969, his son Wilfried played two games in the DFB's national student team - against the Netherlands (4: 1) and England (2: 2) - and switched to Karlsruher SC for the 1972/73 season and rose with the Wildpark-Elf in 1975 into the Bundesliga.
