COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC announced on Friday it had signed defender Speedy Williams to a multi-year contract through the 2027 USL Championship season. The transaction is pending league and federation approval.

Williams returns to Colorado Springs after spending the 2025 season with fellow USL Championship club Lexington SC, where he made 24 appearances, recorded 38 clearances and eight interceptions, and posted an 89.4 percent passing accuracy rate.

The 33-year-old previously competed for the Switchbacks during the 2023 and 2024 campaign, during which he made 72 appearances, totaled 6,058 minutes, and provided nine assists. He played a pivotal role in the team’s 2024 USL Championship title run, helping secure the club’s first league crown.

“Speedy coming back to Colorado Springs gives us a huge boost as he has been a major part of our recent history and can be another major part in bringing us forward again,” said Switchbacks Head Coach Alan McCann. “His presence on the field and in the locker room is something fans and players have missed, so we're really excited to have him back at Weidner Field.”

The only four-time USL Championship title winner in league history, Williams has left a significant mark on the league, claiming championships with New York Red Bulls II in 2016 and Louisville City FC in 2017 and 2018.

On the international stage, Williams has earned 36 caps for the Jamaican National Team and scored his first international goal in a 2019 Concacaf Nations League match against Aruba.

“The Switchbacks organization and the fans have always been good to me,” said Williams. “It’s a fantastic club with lots of talented players. I can’t wait to meet the team and help compete for the title again.”
