Williams was born at Dunedin in 1953.[2] He played for the New Zealand Schools team in the early 1970s, including touring Australia with the side in 1970–71, and played age-group cricket for Otago from the 1971–72 season. He went on to make his first-class debut for the representative side in December 1975 against Auckland at Carisbrook, recording a duck in the first innings and scoring nine runs in the second. He played in six matches for the side during the following season, scoring 94 runs, including his only half-century in first-class cricket.
