Club career
[edit]After a successful spell with SV Seebach, which included winning two "Doubles", Wölbitsch joined Italian Serie A club Reggiana on a professional contract in 1989. She won the league title in her first season[1] but left after a year to return to the Swiss Nationalliga A with DFC Bern.[2][3]
In March 1992 Wölbitsch signed for TuS Niederkirchen of the German Frauen-Bundesliga. Initially she continued working in Switzerland and commuted to training and matches in Germany. The team won the league in 1992–93. In 1996 Wölbitsch wanted to transfer to TuS Ahrbach, but Niederkirchen refused to release her and she missed the entire season. She finished her career with FSV Frankfurt.[3]
International career
[edit]Wölbitsch won her first cap for Switzerland in a 3–1 friendly win over Iceland at Valbjarnarvöllur, Reykjavík, on 21 August 1986. She made her 34th and final national team appearance on 4 May 1994, in a 1–1 UEFA Women's Euro 1995 qualifying draw with Croatia at Stadion Kranjčevićeva, Zagreb.[3]
