Career

Münster, 1961 to 1981

Karl Heinz "Kalle" Krekeler began his football career in the D-youth of Preußen Münster , where Rudi Schulz (legendary member of the "Hundred Thousand Mark Storm") had brought him from the TG Münster, where he had started with handball. His parents ran a flower shop in the Kuhviertel on Jüdefelderstrasse. At first he was a flower maker, later he completed further training as an insurance salesman. He played from the 1970/71 season in the first team of Prussia, which played its association games in the then second division of the Regionalliga West . The home grown debut on April 4, 1971 in the away game against Eintracht Gelsenkirchen (3-1 win) in the team of coach Aki Schmidt , who had replaced the sick Richard Schneider at the turn of the year . He played a total of 93 regional league games from 1970 to 1974, scoring seven goals. In the then newly founded 2. Bundesliga North he played for the club until 1981 (246 games - seven goals) and then switched to league rivals VfL Osnabrück . In 1981, ten clubs from the west from the northern season of the 2nd division joined the new single-track 2nd division for the 1981/82 round, Münster was not one of them and therefore the move to Osnabrück came about. After a season in Osnabrück (17-0) and a total of 263 second division games, he moved to the Oberliga Westfalen for ASC Schöppingen .

The long-time "darling" of the Münster fans leads the Prussian ranking list of the 2nd league appearances with his 246 league games ahead of Werner Fuchs (194), Rolf Grünther (187), Benno Möhlmann (150) and Horst Angel (139). In 1976, 1978 and 1979 he took third place with Münster in what was then the 2nd Northern League. He trained in the 2nd division under the coaches Werner Olk , Hans-Werner Moors (interim), Detlef Brüggemann , Rudolf Faßnacht , Werner Biskup and Günter Exner .

Amateur camp

His former teammate Hans-Werner Moors brought him to the upper division ASC Schöppingen. He played for the ASC until the end of the 1985/86 season. He finally ended his career with TuS Hiltrup in the state league, for which he only played a few months.
