Rainer Philipp (born March 8, 1950 in Bad Nauheim ) is a former German ice hockey player .
Rainer Philipp began playing ice hockey at VfL Bad Nauheim , where he worked in all youth departments and was later part of the Bundesliga team. After 13 years without a title at the Hessian first division club, the striker switched to Kölner Haien in the 1979/80 season , who had just won two championships within three years. In the first few years he always failed in the race for the championship with the KEC. It wasn't until 1984 that his dream came true and he and the Haien won the final of the play-offs against EV Landshut and thus his first title. In the meantime, the trained master bodywork maker had also opened his own company in Cologne. A year later he ended his active career, but remained loyal to the KEC for a long time, for example as a supervisor for the youth teams or as a player in the traditional team.
Philipp played a total of 717 games in the Bundesliga and scored 454 goals. He also played 199 times for the German national team (90 goals) and took part in several world championships and the 1976 and 1980 Olympic Games . At the Winter Games in Innsbruck in 1976 he sensationally won the bronze medal with Xaver Unsinn's team.
Rainer Philipp is the uncle of the former Bundesliga player Ralf Philipp , with whom he played together with the Kölner Haien.
