Football career
FC Basel was founded on 15 November 1893 and Schneider joined the club about two years later, during their 1895–96 season. Schneider played his first game for the club in the home game on 23 November 1895 as Basel played their first ever game against Anglo-American Club Zürich.[1]
Schneider stayed with the club for just this one season and during this time he played five games for Basel without scoring a goal.[note Scorers 1][2]
Notes
Footnotes
- League: up until 1898 there was no league football in Switzerland.
- Scorers: many pre-First World War game sheets no longer exist or are incomplete and so, many line ups and most goal scorers in this period remain unknown.
