Playing career

Born in Eindhoven, Noord-Brabant, Lodewijks started his professional career with local PSV Eindhoven, but was never able to dislodge legendary Hans van Breukelen during his two-year spell. He made his Eredivisie debut on 23 April 1988 in a 2–0 away win against FC Groningen, and then played nine solid seasons at precisely that club, which never lost its top flight status.

Lodewijks' solid performances earned him a PSV return, but he again would only play second-fiddle, now to Ronald Waterreus, appearing very rarely over the course of four years. He signed in 2002 with Feyenoord, playing his first match on 3 November in another 2–0 success at Groningen.
Controversy

In a December 2003 match against FC Twente (2–4 away defeat), Lodewijks was angered by referee Ben Haverkort's decision to award a penalty kick against the visitors. After the final whistle he sarcastically handed the ball to the official, who responded by repeatedly showing the player his tongue.
Coaching career
After the end of the 2006–07 season and the appointment of Bert van Marwijk as new manager, Lodewijks finished his career at the age of 40 and replaced Pim Doesburg as goalkeeping coach of the Rotterdam side. This decision was helped by a knee injury which forced a surgery on the meniscus and left him on the sidelines for a long time.
Lodewijks continued working in that capacity in the following years, with former club Groningen and the Netherlands national team. In June 2016, he joined compatriot Ronald Koeman at Premier League's Everton.
