In the 1974/75 season, the amateur team of black and white Essen reached the runner-up in the Niederrhein Association League and was thus qualified for the competition for the German Amateur Championship. The defensive player Jürgen "Jumbo" Elm and his two teammates Detlef Wiemers and Hans-Gerd Florian received a license contract in the team from coach Hubert Schieth for the 2nd Bundesliga for the 1975/76 season . Elm made his debut in the Uhlenkrug-Elf on August 17, 1975, in a 2-0 home win against DJK Gütersloh .

The ETB defense was occupied with Hans Wulf (goalkeeper) and before that with Elm, Horst Willmsen , Klaus Albert and Franz-Josef Laufer . Essen finished in seventh place at the end of the round and Elm had played in 19 competitive games. The defender played his last game for the black and whites on matchday 38 of the 1977/78 season when coach Dieter Tartemann's team lost 2-1 at Bayer 04 Leverkusen and was relegated to the amateur camp. From 1975 to 1978 Elm had completed 70 second division games for black and white and scored two goals. For the 1978/79 round he accepted the offer from Union Solingen and moved to the "City of Blades".

He made his debut in the blue-yellow on July 29, 1978 under coach Horst Franz in the 1: 3 away defeat against Rot-Weiß Lüdenscheid in the 2nd division. He was part of the regular line-up of Solingen in the 2nd Bundesliga for seven rounds and played 247 league games with 21 goals for Union. The defensive player experienced the best round result in the 1983/84 season with coach Eckhard Krautzun and the two top scorers Wolfgang Schäfer (37-21) and Daniel Jurgeleit (37-15) when he reached fifth place.
