Club career
A wonderfully talented ball-playing forward, Williams played a prominent role as Carlisle beat Castleford in the 1995–96 Regal Trophy match. A season earlier, he had helped Workington Town finish ninth in the old first division. In 1997 he turned down a move to Leeds Rhinos in order to have another spell at Workington Town.[1][3]
