Betting was part of the roster of the first rugby team at FV Stuttgart in 1893 , which was merged into VfB Stuttgart in 1912 . Betting was the only player from his club who was part of the German selection at the rugby competition at the World Exhibition in Paris in 1900 , which otherwise consisted almost exclusively of players from FC Frankfurt . Since the IOC officially assigned the competition to the program for the 1900 Summer Olympics , Betting went down in sports history as an Olympic silver medalist . In 1909 Betting became German runner-up in rugby with FV Stuttgart in 1893 .
