Athletic career

White was accepted into the children's team at Hallesches FC Chemie in 1974 and played through all of the HFC's youth teams until 1986. After graduating from school, he completed an apprenticeship as a maintenance mechanic. For the 1986/87 season, white was included in the first men's team, which has played in the second-rate GDR league since they were relegated to the league in 1984 . On September 27, 1986 he played his first championship game for the 1st team when he was substituted on in the encounter between BSG Chemie Böhlen and HFC Chemie (2: 2). By the end of the season he was used in a total of 13 GDR league games mainly as a left striker, scoring three goals. In this season the HFC managed to return to the GDR Oberliga and for the Oberliga season 1987/88 the 1.75 meter tall, now trained maintenance mechanic was nominated again for the first team. But as early as September 1987 he was in the league season B for BSG Stahl Thale .

He started the season 1988/89 with four missions and one goal in Thale , but already on the 4th league game day White played his first league game for BSG Wismut Aue . While he was still a substitute in this game, with one exception he was always called up in the starting eleven in the following years and made 23 appearances in his first league season. With his seven goals he was second best goalscorer behind Harald Mothes with nine goals. As a league seventh Wismut was nominated for the Intertoto games in 1989 and had to deny the first two games against the Swedish representative Örgryte IS . White was called up in both matches, but used the second leg in Sweden on July 12, 1989 together with his teammates André Köhler and Jens König to flee to West Germany.

Initially, Weiß was signed by Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt , but since the GDR Football Association had obtained a ban at FIFA for illegally changing clubs , he could not be used. In the summer of 1990, Weiß joined SV Darmstadt 98 , who played in the 2nd Bundesliga , where another GDR refugee was working with Jürgen Sparwasser . There white was initially a regular player until October 1992 and up to this point made 73 second division games in which he scored 16 goals. On the 17th matchday of the 1992/93 season, October 2, 1992, he was injured so badly after he had scored the 1-0 winner against Chemnitzer FC that he could no longer be used for the rest of the season could. Darmstadt ended the season as relegated and remained in third class until White - including a one-year detour to the amateurs of Frankfurter Eintracht after his serious injury - left the club in 1996. In his five seasons in the 2nd national and regional league at SV Darmstadt, White played 119 point and four DFB Cup games and scored 22 goals in these 123 appearances. He then ended his career as a professional footballer at the age of almost 29 and moved to TSV Heusenstamm.
