Football career

edit

Zwimpfer played in FC Basel's reserve team, who at that time played in the second tier of Swiss football.[1] He joined the first team for their 1905–06 season. According to the existing documentation, Zwimpfer played his domestic league debut for the club in the away game on 11 March 1906 as Basel were defeated 0–2 by FC Bern.[2]

In his one season with their first team, Zwimpfer played at least five games for Basel without scoring a goal. At least two of these games were in the Swiss Serie A and the others were friendly games, including a 5–2 away win against AC Milan.[3] He probably played more games than mentioned, but the documentation is not available.[note 05–06 1]
