Frank Rohde learned to play football at SG Dynamo Rostock-Mitte, like his three older brothers Peter, Rainer and Jürgen. Their father Egon Rodhe was a youth trainer at SG Dynamo Rostock-Mitte. Egon Rohde was delegated to BFC Dynamo in 1969. He became the head of the youth department and expanded the youth department of BFC Dynamo into a talent factory.[2] Their father brought his four sons with him to East Berlin and Frank Rohde joined the youth department of BFC Dynamo.[3] He then followed his three brothers to the elite Children and Youth Sports School (KJS) "Werner Seelenbinder" in Alt-Hohenschönhausen. All of his brothers played for BFC Dynamo.
Frank Rohde made his professional debut for BFC Dynamo in the 1979-80 season. He won nine East German league and two East Germany cups titles with BFC Dynamo. He was transferred to Hamburger SV together with Thomas Doll in 1990. Rohde played a total of 303 top-flight matches in East Germany and reunified Germany.[4] He later joined Hertha BSC in 1993. Hertha BSC played in the 2. Bundesliga at the time.
Rohde has acknowledged that he learned a lot at Hamburger SV and Hertha BSC, but claims that his years at BFC Dynamo were his best.[5] The sweeper won 42 caps for East Germany in the 1980s.[6]
Rohde lives in Eisenhüttenstadt and works as a teacher as of 2020.[7]
