Horst Wolf (* 27. May 1964 in Amorbach ) is a former German Basketball - National Team .
Life
At the age of 16, Wolf joined the squad of USC Heidelberg , who had just been relegated to the second division and was the record champion at the time with nine championships after two championships in the 1970s. Wolf was used in individual games and they achieved immediate promotion. With the cadet national team (U16 juniors), Wolf achieved third place at the European Championships in 1981, together with Christian Welp and Markus Jochum . Together with Stephan Baeck , Christian Welp and Detlef Schrempf , he achieved a good fifth place at the Junior World Championship in 1983.
The USC developed into the elevator team , but in November 1984 Wolf got his first three and ultimately only appointments to the men's national team. After another relegation in the 1984/85 season, Wolf moved to the reigning champions BSC Saturn Cologne . With him, Wolf was runner-up in 1986.
Wolf first returned to the USC in 1986, which failed to rise again, and then moved to the old master MTV 1846 from Gießen in the first division, which had previously belonged to the up-and-coming teams in the top division with the talents Michael Koch and Henning Harnisch . However, these two players left the Giessen team; Koch had switched to BG Steiner Bayreuth , which the Giessen team defeated in 1988 and 1989 in the play-offs for the German championship and finally won the championship for the first time last year. In 1989 Wolf moved to Ludwigsburg , where in 1992 he won his only national club title after triumphing in the cup competition and was also active in international club competitions in the Korać Cup .
After 1992 Wolf still played in the 2nd Bundesliga for Karlsruhe, USC Heidelberg, which had meanwhile slipped into the Regionalliga and only returned to the second division with Wolf in 1994, and from 1998 two more years for BG 74 Göttingen. In Göttingen, Wolf became the owner of a marketing agency and co-editor of a regional business magazine.
Wolf is the father of basketball players Enosch Wolf and Julius Wolf , who were both active in the two highest German leagues.
