For many people, Beck was considered the best player of all time from Santa Catarina. For others, he was just the best player from the capital.
He was a unique player, not only for his technique and spirit, but also for his pronounced fighting spirit.
His time at Figueirense was marked by achievements. Playing as a left midfielder or as a central midfielder, Beck was state champion in 1932, 1935, 1937 and 1939. In the city championship, he won the titles in 1932, 1933, 1937 and 1939.

One of the little-known facts is the origin of the nickname "Steel Squad." The term caught on with fans in 1939, when Figueirense won both the State Championship and the City Championship. At the time, the team's star was midfielder Hubert Beck, nicknamed "Galego Beck." "Goalkeeper Silas Nunes said it was the Steel Squad, and it stuck. Figueirense had a German who never gave up on a ball. Today, nobody uses that term anymore. It's just Figueira," he revealed. Beck played for Figueirense from 1932 to 1940 and also for Avaí – 1942 to 1945.

Hubert Beck
Popularly known as Galego Beck. Considered by many of his time to be the best athlete from Santa Catarina of his generation. He arrived at Avaí in 1941 and won the Torneio Início titles (1942 and 1944) and the state championship four times (1942, 43, 44 and 45).
