Cheswin Williams (born 22 September 1987 in Saldanha, South Africa) is a South African rugby union player, currently playing with the Template:Rut Boland Cavaliers.[1] He is a utility back than can play as an outside centre, winger or fullback.
Career
Youth and amateur rugby
Williams started his career playing amateur rugby and represented the Template:Rut Boland Cavaliers at the Amateur Provincial Championships held in his hometown of Saldanha.[2]
Boland Cavaliers
In 2012, he was one of the club players that were included in Template:Rut Boland Cavaliers training squads prior to the 2012 Vodacom Cup competition.[3] He earned his inclusion in the squad for the competition[4] and was included on the bench for their second game of the season against the Template:Rut Free State XV in Bredasdorp, but failed to make an appearance as the Boland Cavaliers held out for a narrow 32–30 win.[5]
Just over a month later, he did make his first class debut when he came on in their match against the Template:Rut Border Bulldogs with eight minutes left in the match, where a dramatic finish saw Boland clinch a 45–40 victory after scoring a try in the final minutes of the match.[6] Williams was promoted to the starting line-up for the Cavaliers' next match against the Template:Rut Eastern Province Kings.[7]
He also featured in the Template:Rut Boland Cavaliers' Currie Cup campaign in the latter half of 2012.[8] He made his Currie Cup debut as a second-half replacement against the Template:Rut Griffons in Worcester[9] After two more substitute appearances, Williams made his first Currie Cup start in their match against the Template:Rut Leopards in Potchefstroom.[10] Despite a personal points tally of 19 points (one try, four penalties and a conversion), Williams could not prevent the Cavaliers slipping to a 39–34 defeat. He made a total of eight appearances as the Cavaliers finished a disappointing sixth, despite being the defending champions.
Two more appearances followed in the 2013 Vodacom Cup competition and Williams also played ten times during the 2013 Currie Cup First Division competition, scoring three tries.
