A steelworker, Williams was a giant second rower and played some rugby with Aberavon Quins before moving on to Aberavon RFC, where he formed a forward partnership with Wales international Ned Jenkins. He was capped for Wales in all three matches of their championship-winning 1936 Home Nations campaign.
