Peter Enders (born September 21, 1948 in Berlin) is a former German soccer player .

Player career

Peter Enders played in the youth team for SV Athens in the north (Wedding) of Berlin, from where he moved to the youth team at Hertha BSC in 1960. He was a youth record selection player in Berlin and made it into all DFB squads with coaches Udo Lattek and Detmar Cramer. He represented the DFB in Japan in 1966 at the official German-Japanese youth exchange.

Under coach Helmut Kronsbein , he made his debut in the first team as an 18-year-old on the 23rd match day of the 1966/67 regional league season in a 2-0 win over BFC Südring . There he was able to convince his coach that he was an indispensable part of the team at the end of the season and also played seven out of eight games in the promotion round to the Bundesliga . However, the Berliners had to be content with the last group place behind Borussia Neunkirchen , Schwarz-Weiß Essen , SV Arminia Hannover and SpVgg Bayern Hof .

In the following season , Enders only missed one game and, in the defensive network with Lothar Groß , Uwe Witt and Ivan Šangulin, had an enormous share in the fact that Hertha conceded only eleven goals in 30 league games and thus secured the Berlin championship again. In the promotion round achieved as a result, the blue-whites made it significantly better than last year and relegated Rot-Weiss Essen and SV Alsenborn to their places. With the three home games in front of 80,000 spectators each and a triumphant trip to the Berlin mayor in Schöneberg City Hall, Hertha returned to the German football club after three years of absence .

The FU student Enders played all games in 1968/69. After the recovery, Enders' club held the class straight away in 1968/69 . Even if you scored the least goals with 31 goals, the strong defensive line around Enders prevented relegation. Only champions FC Bayern Munich (31) and MSV Duisburg (37) conceded fewer goals than the Berlin team, where the two goalkeepers Volkmar Groß and Gernot Fraydl had to reach behind them a total of 39 times. In the two following seasons, Peter Enders played because of increasing competition - Hertha, as the financially strongest club, strengthened itself every year with at least three top players - not quite as often as in previous years. However, he was able to contribute to the fact that Hertha ended the seasons 1969/70 and 1970/71 in third place in the table due to the strong defense .

In 1970 there was the record game of the Bundesliga with over 90,000 spectators (probably more than 100,000) in the Berlin Olympic Stadium against 1. FC Cologne. Enders completely eliminated the Cologne captain Overath in midfield. In addition, Hertha played in the European Cup against AC and Inter-Milan, FC Porto and various other top clubs in Europe.

In the 1971/72 season Enders was back in action 28 times and was able to celebrate a sixth place in the table with Hertha. This joy did not last long, however, as Peter Enders, like many other of his teammates, was banned in the course of the Bundesliga scandal from June 21, 1972 to June 20, 1974 and had to pay an additional fine of 15,000 DM, despite the ominous last Bundesliga game against Arminia Bielefeld was demonstrably not manipulated. Enders reports details on this in the biography published in 2016.

Due to the suspension, Peter Enders moved to South Africa to Durban City FC , where the former Herthaners Wolfgang Gayer , Bernd Patzke and Hans-Jürgen Sperlich , who were also involved in the Bundesliga scandal, played alongside him . The team from Durban with the legendary Johnny Haynes - 60 times for England and captain of the world eleven - were superior South African champions.

When Peter Enders was pardoned early on November 26, 1973, he immediately returned to Germany and from November 1973 was in the service of Kickers Offenbach under the Hungarian world player and coach Lorant. There Enders won a regular place in the second half of the 1973/74 season and was part of the fact that the Hessians held the class again. 1974/75 even narrowly missed a place in the UEFA Cup . Also in the 1975/76 season Peter Enders was part of the regular staff under coach Otto Rehhagel and played against Ulli Honeß in the famous 6-0 win against Bayern Munich. Because of Offenbach's financial troubles, Enders was to be sold like some other players - transfer fee 300,000 DM - but at the latest with the appointment of Zlatko Čajkovski as the new trainer, Enders no longer played a role and could not prevent Offenbach's relegation to the second division .

There Enders went on in the 1976/77 season after he switched to SC Herford during the summer break . The Ostwestfalen achieved relegation in the premiere season. Enders began his career as a high school teacher. During the winter break of the following season , Enders left Herford and went to the Oakland Stompers in California, San Francisco in the USA together with Volker Fass and Charly Mrosko . The first game of the club from the retort with a completely new team, thrown together with players from all over the world, attracted 35,000 spectators to the Oakland Colosseum. There he failed in the group stage of the NASL and when the club was relocated to Edmonton after one season , Peter Enders moved to Arminia Hannover.

With Hanover he was able to achieve a midfield position in 1978/79 . Following the season, Peter Enders ended his playing career in 1979. He became a licensed coach and played and trained in the youth and amateur field.
