Career

societies

From 1928 onwards, Fricke played as a striker for Wacker Hannover , who had his sports field in the Steintormasch (harbor). Little is known about his first club - which never made it into the association league -. In the season 1920/21 only Hannover 96 , Hannoversche SC , Eintracht Hannover and FV Sport Hannover played in the southern district league from Hannover .

In the 1926/27 season Wacker Hanover played in group B 1 of the 3rd football district of the North German Football Association . In 1923 the club lost 4-0 to SV Adelia in a soccer tournament in the Eilenriede from 1921 .

The 1932/33 season he stormed for SV Arminia Hannover in the then first-class Oberliga Südhannover-Braunschweig . From 1933 to 1938 he played in the Lower Saxony Gauliga , in one of initially 16, later increased to 23 Gauligen at the time of National Socialism as the uniform top division in the German Empire .

For the 1938/39 season he moved to the league competitor Eintracht Braunschweig , for whom he played in the Gauliga Lower Saxony until the end of the 1941/42 season , and from 1942 to 1944 in the Gauliga Südhannover-Braunschweig . In 1941 , 1942 and 1943 he was used in the first final round of the Tschammerpokal competition.

After the end of the Second World War he played for the Braunschweig team from 1947 to 1952 in the Oberliga Nord . During this time he played 106 points games in which he scored two goals - although he, meanwhile declared a professional, was banned by the DFB for two years . In 1948 he also played in the competition for the British Zone Championship in the quarter-finals , which he won 2-1 against Sportfreunde Katernberg , and the semi-finals, which he lost 3-2 to Hamburger SV . After the end of his active football career, he took on various tasks in the administration of the BTSV .

Selection / national team

He played six times as a representative of the national team of the North German Football Association. In the semifinals of the national cup he lost on January 8, 1933 in Breslau in front of 15,000 spectators against the selection team of the Southeast German Football Association with 1: 3. After he had equalized the 1-0 lead of Ströbitz half-striker Dommaschk in the 17th minute with his goal in the 54th minute, the half-forward Richard Malik from SuSV Beuthen 09 made the surprising decision.

He played his only international match on August 18, 1935 in Luxembourg against the host national team in front of 16,000 spectators; with the goal of 1-0 by Walter Günther in the 43rd minute, he won with the senior national team .
