Career

Faber belonged to the BTuFC Britannia 1892 as a defender , for whom he played in the championships organized by the Association of Berlin Ball Game Clubs .

During his club membership he won the Berlin championship twice . In both title wins, he and his team prevailed in an eight-club league before the BTuFC Viktoria 89 . The first time his club was unbeaten and with four points ahead of the reigning Berlin champions, the second time only one point ahead of first place.

As a result, his team was represented twice in the final round of the German championship . He made his debut on May 10, 1903 in the interior of the Friedenau cycling track in Berlin in the 1-3 quarter-final defeat against what would later become the first German champions VfB Leipzig .

At the same place and also in the quarter-finals , he played his second final round game on April 24, 1904, which, however, was won 6-1 against the Karlsruher FV . In this high victory, not only did he score an own goal with the 1: 1 goal in the 30th minute , but also the Karlsruhe Wilhelm Häfner with the 1: 3 goal in the 49th minute. With his third and last final round game, which was won 3-1 on May 8, 1904 at Hamburger SC Germania von 1887 , his team reached the final.

The final against VfB Leipzig scheduled for May 29, 1904 in Kassel did not take place. The Karlsruher FV had lodged a protest against the rating of this championship at the DFB. The DFB had not complied with the schedule of the final round matches in a neutral location; as a result, the final was canceled in the morning and the championship final was annulled.
