Career

Czeizler was born in a Jewish family in Heves, Austria-Hungary.[1] He played as goalkeeper with Vác in the Hungarian championship between 1921 and 1923.[2]

He began his coaching career in the 1920s in Poland, in Łódzki Klub Sportowy, where he had between 1923 and 1926 his first coaching experience. After this he spent his first years in Italy, coaching the second division sides of Udinese and CA Faenza and from 1930 to 1931 the youth of S.S. Lazio.

From 1935 to 1936 he is coaching ŁKS again before moving to Sweden where his first engagement was in 1940 with Västerås SK. In the Between 1942 and 1948 he had his greatest successes with IFK Norrköping. There he achieved between 1943 and 1948 a record five championships and two national cups in 1943 and 1945.[3] When he led Norrköping to the 1948 championship he became the oldest coach in Sweden to achieve this title. He was then aged 54 years, 8 months and 1 day. The record has since been lost to trainer Conny Karlsson with Helsingborgs IF.

After his time in Sweden he returned to Italy where he led A.C.
