In the 2004–05 and 2005–06 season, Wouter Artz played for Excelsior in Eerste Divisie, where he in his last season became champions with his team.
In 2006, he moved to Cercle Brugge, a team playing in the Belgian First division. In his first season with the Bruges side, Artz was tormented by injuries [1] and as a consequence, he did not play a single match that season. In the beginning of his second season, Artz was again not given many match minutes, much to the surprise of the supporters. Artz had to wait until the last match day to make his first appearance. Artz started the match against Charleroi SC.
His contract with Cercle ended in 2009 and was not renewed, he only made 2 more first team appearances in the 2008-09 season. On 11 July 2009 FC Volendam signed the former Cercle Brugge defender on a free transfer for a year with an option for another year, [2] only for him to return to Belgium to play for Dender.
