Playing career

He joined Leeds United in 1959 at a time when Leeds were struggling and were relegated from the First Division at the end of the 1959-60 season. Cameron scored eleven goals in 64 appearances for Leeds but appearances became scarcer during the 1961-62 season and he joined non-league club Gravesend and Northfleet at the end of the season.
