Club career
Scarlett was born in Kingston. A small, but speedy, left-sided attacking defender, he played for Harbour View in his native Jamaica before signing for Russian Premier League side Spartak Moscow on a six-month contract, with the option of a three-year extension, in August 2002.[1] After returning to Harbour View following his six-months with Spartak Moscow, Scarlett joined Major League Soccer side Real Salt Lake in July 2005.[2] For Spartak, he only played one league game as a second-half substitute against Saturn Ramenskoe; he also made Spartak's UEFA Champions League roster but did not feature in any of their games.
International career
Scarlett appeared for the Jamaica national team, making his debut in 1999 against Costa Rica and playing his last international in 2005 against Australia.
