Forward Sepp Reif placed sixth with the West German ice hockey team at the 1960 Squaw Valley Olympic Games. With Reif, the German team placed seventh at both Innsbruck in 1964 and Grenoble in 1968. He earned 82 caps with the national team, scoring 22 goals.
Domestically Reif played with EC Bad Tölz until 1964 and helped win the West German national title in 1962. He then moved to Düsseldorfer EG and was banned for 18 months as it was not common in the 1960s to move without formal consent from the player’s home club. In 1967, 1972 and 1975 Reif helped Düsseldorf to win three national titles. He was in 1993 inducted into the German Ice Hockey Hall of Fame.
