He played his first game for the club in the home game in the Stadion Schützenmatte on 5 May 1895 as Basel won 2–0 against Abstinenten FC Patria Basel.[1]

He stayed with the club for two seasons and during this time Götz played a total of five games for Basel without scoring a goal.[note Scorers 1][2]
