}} Jeff Williams (born July 17, 1974) is a Canadian former international rugby union player.[1]
Raised in Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, Williams is the elder brother of Canada scrum-half Morgan Williams and came through the Pacific Pride program in British Columbia.[2]
Williams, a James Bay stalwart, had several years as an international rugby sevens player by the time he got his Canada senior call up in 2001.[3] He was capped five times for Canada that year, debuting at fullback against the United States in Kingston, then later playing a tournament in Japan with the national team.[4]
From 2015 to 2021, Williams served as coach of the Canada men's under-20 rugby union team.[5] He has coached at Shawnigan Lake School since 2005. [6]
