Biography
During the early 1920s Germany (as a national team) didn't compete yet at the international women's athletics competitions that existed. At the earliest international club-organized women's competitions representing German region Westphalia, Kuhlmann had successes in 1923 and 1924. In 1923 she won at the 1923 Twente–Westphalia athletics competition in Enschede, the Netherlands the high jump event with a height of 1.35 metres, ahead of the Dutch Joosten. She also competed in the long jump and finished fourth. The following year at the 1924 Westphalia–Twente athletics competition in Münster she finished second in the high jump, with the same height of 1.30 metres as Joosten.

Kuhlmann became at the German Athletics Championships national champion in 1922 in the high jump with a height of 1.39 metres. In 1923 she won the bronze medal behind Anni Müller and Leni Junker.
