Hellmut Schmeißer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hellmut Schmeißer (born February 15, 1915 , † 1965 ) was a German football player. For the SV Dessau 05 , the Stuttgarter Kickers and the Hamburger SV he played in the first division football. He later worked as a coach in amateur football.

In 1937, Schmeißer moved from the second-class 1. SV Gera to the Gauliga representative SV Dessau 05. Between 1937 and 1944 he was six times champion of the Gauliga middle with the Dessau team and took part in the final round of the German championship just as often. He played mostly as a center forward in all 22 final round matches of SV 05. He was successful as a final scorer seven times. In 1943 he was invited by Reich coach Sepp Herberger to a preparatory course for the national team for the international match planned for April that year in Spain. Because of the declaration of "total war" by the German National Socialists, Germany did not play any more international matches until the end of the Second World War.

In the district selection center, he completed eight games in the Reichsbund Cup from 1935 to 1941.

After the end of the war, Schmeißer was briefly active at Berliner SV 92 and the Sport-Union Dessau . In 1947 he moved to Stuttgart and joined the Stuttgarter Kickers there. Shortly before the end of the 1946/47 season he played four point games with the Kickers in the Oberliga Süd . He proved his goal danger with eight goals. Of the 38 league games in the 1947/48 season, Schmeißer completed 22 games and scored eleven goals. The Kickers took third place in the south behind champions 1. FC Nürnberg and 1860 Munich and achieved an outstanding goal difference with 113: 58 goals. The goal scorers included Kurt Lauxmann (26), Edmund Conen (18), Siegfried Kronenbitter (13), Günther Sosna (11) and Reinhard Schaletzki with eight goals.

After a premature separation from the Kickers, his move to TSV Goslar was announced . Instead, the 33-year-old Schmeißer landed at Hamburger SV for the 1948/49 season after the latter "covered the obligations that the player had left in Stuttgart". For the club he played in the Oberliga Nord 20 of the 22 point games and was successful four times as a goal scorer. With HSV he was North German champion and was used as a center forward in one of the two finals for the German championship. In 1949/50 Schmeißer joined the SVA Gütersloh , where he ended his career as a soccer player after a year in the district class.

In the following years, Schmeißer worked as a football coach. First he stayed with his previous club Arminia Gütersloh until 1952. Then he turned to the Saarland and took over the coaching position in the second league Südwest Sportfreunde 05 Saarbrücken . Under his leadership, the team rose in 1954 to the Oberliga Südwest . In the league season 1954/55 Schmeißer set up for nine games himself, but could not avoid the immediate relegation. For one year he coached the North Baden amateur league club ASV Durlach in 1955/56 .
