Football Fisher was also a footballer and played for Montreux-Sports at least during the 1927–28 season.

He also played for FC Basel 1893 in at least one league match in 1930. After playing in another test game against Biel-Bienne, Fisher played his domestic league debut for the club in the away game on 30 November 1930 as Basel played a 2–2 draw with local team Old Boys. Fisher was only the second English person to play league football for the club, in fact to date he remains one of only three English players ever to play for Basel, the others being Archibald E. Gough between 1900 and 1902 and L. B. Trenchard Chaffey in 1901.
