Liam Williams Bio

Born 9 April 1991, Liam Williams was developed by his local club, Waunarlwydd RFC. However, despite a successful junior career, he was not picked up by any of the Welsh regional professional academies. As a result, he found work as a trainee scaffolder while playing rugby on a part-time basis.

Thankfully, his continued commitment to the game paid off and he was ultimately signed by Scarlets at age 20. Since, he’s represented some of the world’s top domestic sides, including Scarlets, Saracens, Cardiff and Kubota Spears. He recently enjoyed his second stint with Saracens, but left the club at the end of the 2024-25 Premiership Rugby season. He’s yet to announce where he will play during the 2025-26 season. 

Despite his illustrious domestic career, Liam Williams is arguably best known for his performances on the international stage. Since 2012, he's made more than 90 appearances for Wales. Thanks to his form for club and country, he was also selected for two British and Irish Lions tours. He played in all three tests in 2017 and a further two tests in 2021. However, he was not named in Warren Gatland’s squad for the 2025 tour of Australia

With many years of professional rugby still ahead of him, we can't wait to see what else Liam Williams can achieve in the game.
