Athletic career

Kruse's first club was TK Hannover , with which she was German team champion in 1960 and second in 1961. In addition, this team won the German Cup in 1961. In 1958 and 1960, she won the German Cup with the Lower Saxony team . At the German championships she reached the semi-finals in 1960 and the final in 1961, which she lost to Inge Müser . From 1959 to 1961 she won the doubles championship three times in a row with Inge Müser, in 1961 and 1962 she won the mixed title with Hans Wilhelm Gäb .

In 1958 and 1960 she was Lower Saxony champion in women's singles.

Shortly before her wedding, she moved to TTC Rot-Weiß Hamburg in 1961, where she lived. When she took part in a Hamburg championship for the first time, she won the women's doubles title in November 1961 with her team-mate Ev-Kathlen Zemke . After the birth of her two sons, Jutta Teller played temporarily for the DTC Kaiserberg and the TTC Black-Yellow Steele (from April 1965) in the Oberliga West. She came second in the West German ranking tournament in 1966 when she was only defeated by the only fourteen-year-old Wiebke Hendriksen . For the season 1966/67 she was in talks for a newly founded women's team in Dortmund, but finally moved back to her home club TK Hannover in October 1966 together with her husband Horst and again became its top player in the Oberliga Nord . In November 1967 she won her third Lower Saxony title in women's singles.

When the Teller couple moved from Hanover to Hamburg after only one and a half years, they both switched to the Hanseatic city for sport in April 1968 and Jutta played again for the red and white league. In November 1968, after three individual titles in Lower Saxony, she also won her first Hamburg championship in the women's singles. In 1969 she decided not to participate in the World Cup, for which she had already been nominated, and ended her national career for family reasons. The Hamburg Table Tennis Association adopted it on May 2, 1969 at the traditional Hanseatic city competition against Esbjerg , in which it was last used as a representative. Until 1971 she helped out a few times in the second team that played in the city league.
