Jean Ducret
Jean Ducret (born November 27, 1887 in Suresnes , Hauts-de-Seine department ; November 19, 1975 in Vaucresson ) was a French football player .
The club career
Jean Ducret played in a position that by today's standards would most likely correspond to an attacking midfielder ; However, such designations only apply to a very limited extent to the footballing "childhood years" before the First World War , because a game system with fixed tasks assigned to the field players was only just beginning to exist. Ducret used - unusual for the time - to train stamina and technique regularly, which enabled him to put his stamp on the fighting games, which often lasted more than 90 minutes, until the final whistle.
The player was from at least 1910 to 1913 in the ranks of the Étoile des Deux Lacs from Paris , which belonged to the Catholic sports movement Fédération Gymnastique et Sportive des Patronages Français (FGSPF). Etoile won, among other things, the national championship of the FGSPF from 1911 to 1913 and in 1912 also the Trophée de France , which was held between the winners of the competing football associations . When exactly Ducret came to Étoile and where he had played before cannot be determined in view of the sources; in any case, when Étoiles won the Trophée de France in 1907, he was not in its final eleven.
In 1913, Jean Ducret moved to Northern France to Olympique Lillois , an association of the Union des Sociétés Françaises de Sports Athlétiques (USFSA), the oldest and strongest before the war . This club won the USFSA championship in 1914 and then the Trophée de France ; thus Ducret had become French champion for the second time , even if in France only the titles from 1932/33 count as official ones.
The national player
Between April 1910 and March 1914, Jean Ducret played 20 international matches for the Équipe tricolore ; he scored three goals (1910 against Italy , 1913 and 1914 each against Luxembourg ) and was team captain in twelve matches. The first 16 of these games fell during his time at Étoile des Deux Lacs, four while playing for Lille. He was the first Frenchman to have 20 missions, making him the second record international in his country after Jean Rigal , whose eleven missions Ducret beat in 1913. His best-known teammates at the Bleus included goalkeeper Pierre Chayriguès , defender Gabriel Hanot and strikers Eugène Maës , Henri Bard and the young Raymond Dubly .
Coaching
After the war, Jean Ducret coached Stade Français , Étoile des Deux Lacs as well as teams from Saint-Germain-en-Laye and Chantilly - at the latter club he formed a young talent named Alfred Aston , who later became France's best players for many years counted.
