At the age of 20, Eichelmann joined BFC Germania , which was founded in 1888 and which had joined the Association of German Ball Game Clubs founded on September 11, 1897 with the start of the 1899/1900 season . As a goalkeeper he was used in the championship games held under this association, from May 10, 1902 - with the renaming of the association to the Association of Berliner Ballspielvereine - under this until the end of the 1903/04 season . Since his club had to relegate to the second class as seventh of eight clubs , he moved to the BTuFC Union in 1892 with which he completed his maiden season as champions. By the end of the 1910/11 season , the club could no longer build on its earlier success. His last championship season, he played under the newly established on April 29, 1911 Brandenburg football championship , the umbrella organization of all football clubs in Berlin and the province of Brandenburg, now in the group A . One point behind the group winners BTuFC Viktoria 89 , he and his team missed the final of the Berlin championship.

He played his only final round game on May 14, 1905 in Magdeburg in a 4-1 victory over FuCC Eintracht 1895 Braunschweig . He thus contributed to the German championship, which his club won on June 11, 1905 in the Cologne stadium Weidenpescher Park with the 2-0 victory over the Karlsruher FV . With his club as the defending champion, he played two more final round matches the following year, namely the 3-1 quarter-final win at FC Victoria 1895 from Hamburg and the 0-4 semi-final defeat against 1. FC Pforzheim in Braunschweig . In 1907 the BTuFC Union 1892 was no longer the best Berlin team, Viktoria 89 Berlin played more successfully from then on.

In the first of five great international matches against the highly superior English national team consisting of professionals and amateurs , he had to accept 13 goals; his team scored two goals, one of them by Walter Jestram .
In 1901 the English invited the German players to make a return visit. A stronger Berlin selection traveled to England and lost significantly with 0:12 and 0:10. Eichelmann was appreciated by the spectators for his funny manner and brought a football signed by the English professionals back to Berlin as a souvenir .
In 1908, he not only played his second city game Berlin - Vienna , which was lost 3-1 on the Mariendorfer sports field in Berlin, but also his only two international games, which are official from today's perspective and are scheduled by the umbrella organization DFB, which was founded in 1900. On April 20, he lost with the senior national team in Berlin to England's national team with 1: 5 - Fritz Förderer scored the only German goal with the goal to make it 1: 1 in the 20th minute with a penalty . On June 7th, the test match against the Austrian national team in Vienna was lost 3-2. Eichelmann was the only player from the original international matches who was also used as an official national player a decade later . In the third city comparison Vienna - Berlin on October 4, he lost 4-0 with his selection of cities on the Hohe Warte in Vienna.
As a player in the selection team of the Association of Brandenburg Ball Game Clubs , he also took part in the competition for the Crown Prince's Cup.
