Why Did Cameron Williams Leave Channel 9? What Is Cameron Williams Doing Now?

Nine News Sydney’s sports presenter, Cameron Williams, resigned from Nine News to focus on his health and then to pursue other opportunities.

Williams who has spent 16 years with the network, joined Nine in 2006 with roles on Today, Weekend Today, Nine News, Rugby World Cup and Friday Night Football until 2016.

News boss Darren Wick wrote to staff advising, “Cameron Williams has resigned from his role with Nine as an on-air sports presenter. Cam is leaving us to focus on his health and then to pursue other opportunities that we look forward to hearing more about.

“I want to thank Cam for his significant contribution to Nine over the past six years. Cam’s last day was 21 March 2022. Please join us in wishing him all the very best.”

Williams wrote: “It’s with a heavy heart I have decided to resign from Nine. Leaving the best team in News is difficult and being part of that team is an honor.

“But I have struggled for years with increasingly poor health and I want to address that now for the sake of a more important team, my family. I want to thank Wickie for making this process possible.

“He has kindly offered me a goodbye lunch so I can pay tribute to those who helped me along the way over 15 years total.”

Williams also held roles at Seven Network in 1988 at Seven News, Sportsworld, Barcelona Olympics and in 1996 was the face of FOX Sports for five years anchoring NRL on FOX, Dally M Awards, Super 12 Rugby, Wimbledon, Winter Olympics, the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix, and FOX Sports News.

James Bracey will move to a weeknight sports anchor role with Emma Lawrence on weekend bulletins.
