Club career
Born in Hamburg, Wolter arrived at SV Werder Bremen in the summer of 1984, from local amateurs Hamburg Eimsbütteler Ballspiel Club. After only three games in his first season in the Bundesliga he became first-choice, and remained his entire professional career with the same club.
Due to injury, Wolter was only able to appear in 16 matches in the 1987–88 campaign as the Hanseatic League team won the second national championship in its history, the first in 23 years. He also appeared in four German Cup finals in the late 80s/early 90s, winning two and losing two.
Wolter played in 34 official contests in 1991–92 – this included six in the season's UEFA Cup Winners' Cup which ended in conquest, with the player being stretchered off in the first half of the 2–0 final win against AS Monaco FC. He retired in June 1998 at almost 35 years of age, with nearly 400 official games to his credit.
In the molds of another Werder legend, Thomas Schaaf, Wolter continued his career at the club as a manager, starting in the reserve team. In July 2013 he was appointed at the youth academy, while Viktor Skrypnyk replaced him at the reserves.
International career
Wolter gained one cap for Germany, playing 60 minutes in a 1–3 friendly loss with Brazil in Porto Alegre, on 16 December 1992.
