Career

societies

Baumgärtner played as a 15-year-old from 1905 to 1907 for BFC Germania 1888 in the Association of Berliner Ballspielvereine . As a climber to the 1st class, this could be kept, as in the following season.

From the 1907/08 season to the end of the 1922/23 season, he played exclusively for the Düsseldorfer SV 04 in the regional top division - the first two seasons in the North Rhine District , in the following season in the Association League , from which he and the team went to the A -Class mountain descent - from 1910/11 in the Rhine district north / Berg, from 1911/12 to 1912/13 in the Rheinische Südkreis and 1913/14 in the Rheinischen Nordkreis. After he emerged with Düsseldorf SV 04 as the winner for first place in a playoff against Düsseldorf FK Union , he took part in the final round of the West German Championship , which was bottom of the table.

National team

As a player for Düsseldorfer SV 04, he also became a national player in 1908 and played the first four internationals for the senior national team , among the eleven who won the first official international match on April 5, 1908 in Basel when they were beaten 5-3-5 lost the Swiss national team . So also the following three international matches on April 20, 1908 against an English amateur national team with 1: 5, on June 7, 1908 against the national team of Austria with 2: 3 and on March 13, 1909 against the national team of England with 0: 9.

In his last international match he lived in England and so the costs for the travel of the eleventh player could be saved. After this assignment he received no further appointment, although he always hoped to be considered again; his international career ended at the age of 18.

Others

At just 17 years, 3 months and 13 days, Baumgärtner is the youngest national player to date to have ever played an international match for the DFB. With his participation in the first four international matches he was the DFB's first national record player from March 13, 1909 to April 24, 1910 ; before there were several players with the same number of games. In 1932 he emigrated to Brazil , where he died in 1953.
