About

Fritz Pipes was born in 1887 in Prague, Bohemia, which was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. He represented Austria during his lawn tennis career and, in 1912, notably won a silver medal with Arthur Zborzil in the men’s doubles event at the outdoor events held during the Summer Olympic Games in Stockholm, Sweden. Fritz Pipes was also an active member of the Austrian Lawn Tennis Federation, which was founded in 1902.

Between 1907 and 1913, Fritz Pipes played ice hockey for the Prague-based Deutsche Eishockey-Gesellschaft (German Ice Hockey Society). He enjoyed a great deal of success with this ice hockey club’s team, both nationally and internationally.

Fritz Pipes was Jewish and, following the Anschluss, or annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany in 1938, he emigrated to the USA with his wife. They originally lived in New York City, but later moved to Seattle in Washington State.
