career
The defensive player Rainer Prieß took third place in the 1974/75 season with the amateur team of Eintracht Braunschweig in the regional league of the Lower Saxony Football Association . In the promotion round to AOL Nord, his team prevailed against competitors VfB Lübeck, VfB Peine and Altonaer FC 93 and rose to the Amateur Oberliga Nord. Prieß had played five games alongside other players such as Uwe Hain , Rainer Slodczyk , Peter Hayduk and Uwe Krause . With the promoted team, he completed all 34 round matches under coach Heinz Patzig and in addition to team-mates like Matthias Bruns and Wolfgang Grobe in the 1975/76 season and scored three goals. Also in the second league year with the Eintracht amateurs, 1976/77 , Priess played all 34 league games and scored six goals. His performance in the club led him to the association selection of Lower Saxony and he entered the NFV selection in the competition of the state cup against the representatives of the Lower Rhine (2: 1, 1: 1) and Westphalia (3: 1, 1: 4 n.V. .) on.
For the 1977/78 season he joined the runner-up SV Union Salzgitter, which had failed in the promotion round to the 2nd Bundesliga on Rot-Weiß Lüdenscheid, SV Siegburg 04 and Holstein Kiel. With coach Imre Farkasinski (until February 1978) and the other newcomer Jürgen Dudda , Salzgitter only reached ninth place. Prieß had played 32 games and scored five goals. With the association selection of Lower Saxony, the games for Prieß in the state cup were more successful. After successes against Württemberg, Bremen and in the semifinals against North Baden, he and his team- mates Bernd Krumbein , Kurt Pinkall and Peter Rühmkorb entered the finals against Westphalia in March 1978. In both games, however, the representation of Westphalia prevailed 1-0. After a year in Salzgitter, Prieß, like his teammates Peter Ament and Klaus-Dieter Schäfer, signed a new contract with runner-up VfL Wolfsburg for the 1978/79 season . Again, he had not found a happy time when changing clubs. Wolfsburg had to be content with fifth place and Salzgitter reached third place. The unrest in the coaching area - with Farkasinski, Henk van Meteren and from April 28, 1979 with Wilfried Kemmer , three coaches had been in action at VfL in this round - prevented the “Wolves” from achieving the championship they were aiming for. Prieß had played all 34 rounds and scored five goals. His performance in Wolfsburg attracted attention from the DFB. Erich Ribbeck , the responsible DFB coach for the amateur national team, appointed him to the amateur selection for three international matches in March against Italy (0: 2), in April against Yugoslavia (2: 3) and in May against France (1: 3).
Also the appearances in the DFB-Pokal on August 25, 1979 against VfB Stuttgart (0: 3), August 30, 1981 against Rot-Weiß Lüdenscheid (2: 1) and on October 10, 1981 at SSV Ulm (1: 2) were sporting highlights for Prieß with VfL Wolfsburg. With the "Wolves" Prieß played including the 1983/84 season in the league, but the promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga did not succeed.
From 1978 to 1984 he played 166 league games and scored 15 goals for VfL Wolfsburg in the amateur Oberliga Nord.
