Ty Williams (born 27 November 1980 in Innisfail, Queensland) is an Australian professional rugby league player for the North Queensland Cowboys in the National Rugby League competition.

North Queensland Cowboys

Once scored 42 tries in a season as a centre for the Innisfail Leprechauns in the Cairns and district a-grade comp. Upon being signed with the Cowboys, he really developed his game and by the end of 2005 he was one of the NRL's best wingers. He played for the Cowboys in the 2005 NRL grand final which was lost to the Wests Tigers.

In 2006 Williams suffered a huge setback, tearing his Achilles tendon in Round 4 and not playing in the NRL until Round 7 of 2007.

Since returning from his injury, Williams has been in and out of the Cowboys squad, often finding form only to have further niggling injuries interfere in his career. He is one of the most versatile outside backs at the club, being able to play on the wing, in the centres, at fullback and even five-eighth.

On 28 July 2010 Williams told the Cowboys that at season's end, he will retire.[1]

Northern Pride

Ty captained the Cairns-based Intrust Super Cup team, the Northern Pride between 2011 and 2013.[2]
