Born in Dresden in 1891, Simon Leiserowitsch is one of the early stars of German soccer history. After the East Jewish family moved to Berlin in 1910, the young man, often just called Sim, played soccer first for Hertha and then for Tennis-Borussia Berlin. The right winger's greatest success was winning the Crown Prince's Cup in 1918 as a member of the Berlin-Brandenburg selection. After his active career, Leiserowitsch returned temporarily to Dresden, where he earned his living as a cardboard box manufacturer. At TeBe, however, he remains active in the club for a long time.
