from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Herbert Heinze (* March 12, 1925 - January 29, 2011 ) was a soccer player in Zwickau and soccer coach in Stalinstadt / Eisenhüttenstadt . With the ZSG Horch Zwickau he became the first GDR soccer champion in 1950.

Sports career

Heinze belongs to the generation of football players who, after the end of the Second World War, laid the foundations for decades of successful football in the western Saxon city in Zwickau and the suburb of Planitz . In 1945 he belonged to SG Zwickau-Mitte and later to SG Planitz , which won the Zwickau district championship in 1947. In autumn 1947 he belonged to the circle of so-called "zone jumpers" around Heinz Satrapa , who briefly strengthened the team at Hannover 96 if necessary. After he was not part of the Planitz Championship at the 1st Eastern Zone Championship in 1948 , he ensured the decisive 5: 1- with three goals in the third qualifying game for participation in the first season of the Oberliga , founded by the German Sports Committee , on September 6, 1949 Horch Zwickau wins over SG Zeiss Jena. In the meantime, the Planitzers had also joined the ZSG Horch Zwickau. Heinze was also involved in the 1949 4-0 final win against Konsum Chemnitz for the Saxon soccer cup. In his first league season 1949/50 Heinze played all 26 point games and scored ten goals.

Thus he was one of the main participants in the championship win of the Zwickau. In the final game at SG Dresden-Friedrichstadt that was decisive for the championship, Heinze was involved with two goals in the Zwickau's 5-1 victory. In the seasons 1951/52 and 1952/53 he was the most successful goalscorer of his team with 19 and 13 goals respectively, now running as BSG Motor Zwickau. On July 3, 1954 , Heinze stood with Motor Zwickau as a half-right striker in the final of the GDR soccer cup . The second big success after the championship in 1950 he failed, because his team was defeated by ASK Vorwärts Berlin with 1: 2. In the fall of 1954, Zwickau got a new addition through players from the BSG Empor Lauter, who had refused to take part in the politically ordered move to Rostock with their team. As a result, the 29-year-old Heinze lost his regular place. After 130 league games with 55 goals, he ended his career in Zwickau in 1954. In the Saxony selection he had played five times and scored two goals.

In 1954 Heinze was initially the player-coach for the newcomer to the second-rate GDR league Stahl Stalinstadt . In the transition round in 1955, which was used to switch to the calendar year rhythm in GDR football and was only played with 13 game days, he was the top scorer of his team with eight goals. Heinze worked for the steelworkers, from 1961 Stahl Eisenhüttenstadt to 1962 as a trainer, in the last two years together with Heinz Pönert. Commuting between the first and second GDR leagues , he achieved his best result in 1957 with 8th place in the first GDR league. After further coaching positions in Schwedt and Eberswalde , Heinz took up a degree in pedagogy and later worked as a senior teacher.
