Coaching career

Ulrich's first coaching position was head coach of Karlsruher SC[1] where he was head coach from 26 April 1986 to the end of the season.[3] The stint was for four matches where he won a match, drew a match and lost two.[4] He then became an assistant coach three years later between July 1989 and June 1990 for Kalrsruhe.[1] His next head coaching job was at SSV Ulm 1846[1] which started on 1 July 1994 and lasted for a season.[5] He won 20 league matches,[6] collected 45 points,[6] and got to the second round of the 1994–95 DFB-Pokal.[7] He went on to become head coach of Bayern Munich reserve team[1] between 1 July 1995 and 30 June 1998.[8] He returned to Karlsruhe as their head coach[1] between 26 August 1998 and 15 October 1999.[3] He then took over at VfR Mannheim after Günter Sebert was sacked on 8 March 2001.[9] On 22 March 2002, Mannheim announced that Ulrich would leave the club (mutual consent) after the season and was replaced by Frank Wormuth.[10] Ulrich's final match was a 3–2 win against Eintracht Trier on 18 May 2002.[11] He then became head coach of 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 on 19 July 2004.[12] The results for Schweinfurt were annulled[13] after they went bankrupt. He left Schweinfurt to return to Mannheim on 7 February 2005.[14] He signed a contract to the end of the season.[14] He eventually extended his contract and stayed until the end of the 2005–06 season.[15] During the 2005–06 season, on 27 April 2006, it was announced that Ulrich would become head coach of FC Nöttingen after the season.[15] His last match in charge was a 3–1 win against Nöttingen on 27 May 2006.[16] He left Nöttingen on 4 January 2007.[17] He then became head coach of SC Fürstenfeldbruck on 15 January 2007[18] and was there until 17 April 2007 when Mannheim hired Ulrich as head coach for the third time.[19] Ulrich was replaced by Dieter Heimen in June 2007.[20] On 18 June 2009, Bayern announced that Ulrich was an assistant coach for Mehmet Scholl. He became head coach of Bayern Munich II from 12 April 2011[21] to 9 June 2011 when Andries Jonker took over.[22] He returned to his position as assistant coach of the reserve team.[1]
