Athletic career

Rehschuh, who started at Halleschen FC Chemie (HFC) in 1974, was the captain of the HFC youth team in 1975/76, which won the youth championship of the GDR football association that season. After the pupil of the Halle children's and youth sports school had also gone through the HFC junior team, he was accepted into the HFC junior team for the 1978/79 season, with which he played in the GDR junior league. On the penultimate day of the GDR league, the 1.85 m tall deer shoe made his first division debut. In the game HFC - Sachsenring Zwickau (3: 1) on May 3, 1980, the now sports teacher student was used as a Libero . Although he was also nominated for the junior league for the 1980/81 season, coach Peter Kohl put him back as a libero in the GDR league from the start of the season. After five missions he then had to give way to regular defender Lutz Radtke . For the 1981/82 season Rehschuh was officially included in the first HFC team. However, he did not succeed in asserting himself against the regular players, so that he only had the role of substitute player. In his eleven missions this season he played either Libero or Vorstopper . The following season 1982/83 already meant the end of Rehschuh's career in the league. He jumped in eight times in a row as a defender, the top division match on the 10th match day HFC - FC Karl-Marx-Stadt (2: 2) on November 6, 1982 was his last first division game. 1983/84 the HFC nominated him again for the GDR Oberliga team, but he was no longer used in the point games.

After Rehschuh had acquired the sports teacher diploma, he took over the training of the second division team of SG Dynamo Eisleben in the 1986/87 season . After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, he acquired the A license for soccer teachers and in 1995 became the head coach of his former club Hallescher FC, which had since dropped the suffix "chemistry". At this point in time, the people of Halle only played in the five-class association league of Saxony-Anhalt . In 1997 Rehschuh managed to lead the HFC into the amateur league, but then left the club. In 2001 Rehschuh was once again known nationwide as a football coach when he took over the training of SG Union Sandersdorf in the Association League Saxony-Anhalt. He worked there until his release in February 2008 due to unsuccessfulness.

Rehschuh was active as a leisure kicker at Zörbiger FC until the end of the 1990s. In 1994 he and his family settled in Zörbig . The state administration office in Halle hired him as a school sports coordinator, and the district football association of the Anhalt-Bitterfeld district elected him chairman for training and further education.
