Hansch , born in 1938 in Recklinghausen in North Rhine-Westphalia, started at the local horse racing track. Because the speaker was absent due to illness, he commented on the races - the audience was immediately impressed.

In 1973 his voice was heard for the first time at FC Schalke 04 when he stepped in as the stadium announcer and was allowed to stay until 1978. Legendary: At his Schalke premiere he announced S04 goalkeeper Norbert Nigbur "with number one" - Hansch probably still had his thoughts on the horse track.
