career

society

Theodor Burkhardt completed the most successful years of his football career at Germania Brötzingen, on the outskirts of Pforzheim . The defender was first significantly involved in the promotion in the 1927/28 round of Germania in the Württemberg-Baden district league, group Württemberg, before the sporting climax of the Brötzinger came in the following year: Germania Brötzingen won the championship in Württemberg in 1928/29 in front of Stuttgart Kickers and VfB Stuttgart . Then the final round of the South German Championship against 1. FC Nürnberg , FC Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt were played in the Brötzinger Tal. From the round 1929/30 the derbies were against the promoted 1. FC Pforzheim . Theodor Burkhardt played with Germania Brötzingen until the introduction of the Gauligen in the 1933/34 season in what was then the highest class. In the debut year of the Gauliga Baden - 1933/34 - the Teutons took ninth place and were relegated. In 1935 it was immediately re-established. Burkhardt later moved to 1. FC Pforzheim. From 1940 to 1941 he played for the Karlsruher FV . After the end of the war he laced his boots again for Germania Brötzingen.

Selection games, national team

The defender von Brötzingen had his first appearance in the selection of South Germany on October 14, 1928 in Frankfurt / Main against Southeast Germany. The south won 5-1 goals. Burkhardt and Franz Schütz from Eintracht Frankfurt formed the defender couple. The identical final triangle of the southern German selection was also in action on September 28, 1930 during the international match in Dresden against Hungary with goalkeeper Willibald Kreß (RW Frankfurt) and the defenders Burkhardt and Schütz. The selection of coach Otto Nerz , driven by captain Richard Hofmann from Dresdner SC , turned the game in the second half after a 3-0 deficit and won with 5: 3 goals. Theodor Burkhardt did not receive any further appointments to the national soccer team . With southern Germany he celebrated successes in the country cup. On April 19, 1931 he defended with his teammate Wilhelm Heidlauf in the final in Dresden against Central Germany of the competition of 1930/31 for southern Germany. After extra time, the south won the national cup with 4: 3 goals. Ten players from Dresdner SC represented Central Germany for the Saxons; only the goalkeeper Hans Menzel from Wacker Leipzig did not play for Dresden. In the 1931/32 round, the Brötzinge defender was in the final with southern Germany for the second time. In Leipzig, however, northern Germany prevailed with 2-1 goals. Hans Jakob from SSV Jahn Regensburg guarded the gate and Georg Wurzer from FV 1894 Ulm was on the right run. In his third final on April 23, 1933, Burkhardt experienced an undisputed 6-1 win by southern Germany against south-eastern Germany in Mannheim. With Sigmund Haringer he formed the defensive backing for this success. Edmund Conen , Josef Fath and Oskar Rohr shared the goals . The man from the Brötzinger Tal played his last selection game on July 2, 1933 for the Baden district against the Middle Rhine.

After the career

After the war, Theodor Burkhardt volunteered on the gaming committee at his home club in Brötzingen. In January 1947, according to Sport (Munich), he was still one of the pillars of the team in the North Baden regional league.
