Hans Rampf |
|
| Born on February 2, 1931 in Bad Tolz, Germany. As an ice hockey player, Hans Rampf enjoyed a long and successful career, appearing in 640 games between 1945 and 1964. As a testament to his character, loyalty and value to his team, Rampf suited up as either a forward or as a defenseman, but only for one team - his hometown club Bad Tolz, winners of the German championship in 1962. Rampf also represented the German national team in 101 international games and scored 18 goals. He took part in the IIHF World Championship in 1953, 1954, 1955, 1959, 1961 1962 and 1963, winning one silver medal. Rampf's Olympic experience included the 1956 Games in Cortina d'Ampezzo and 1960 in Squaw Valley. Although Rampf began his coaching career while he was still playing with Bad Tolz, he afterward applied his skills to the club teams of Holzkirchen, Dusseldorf, Riessersee and Augsburg. As coach of the German national team, Rampf guided the team in the 1977, 1978, 1979 and 1981 IIHF World Championships, as well as the 1980 Olympic Winter Games in Lake Placid. Rampf also coached the German junior national teams in the 90's. |
