Career
Watson spent most of his career with the Newport Wasps. He failed to agree terms with the Newport promotion for 2007 and was eventually signed up by former club Poole Pirates in the Elite League. However his scores were low and when he suffered an injury early in the season his replacement, Piotr Swist, did well enough to keep his place.
Watson signed for Premier League team the Glasgow Tigers for the rest of the 2007 season and had a successful spell with the club
However, the BSPA found that his greensheet average was incorrect and therefore his average would be too high for him to fit into the Poole squad. Watson was left without a club, but soon after once again signed for Premier League team Newport.
Newport closed in May following the death of their owner, and Watson joined the Birmingham Brummies.
