Career edit

Born in Dundee, Henderson played for minor local club Norwood before spells with Scottish League clubs Dundee[1] and Heart of Midlothian.[2] For the latter club he made 22 league appearances, scoring 3 goals, and also featured on the losing side in the 1907 Scottish Cup Final.[3]

He signed for New Brompton of the English Southern League in 1908. He joined the club at the same time as another player also called William Henderson, and the two played alongside each other on six occasions.[4] While his namesake was a regular in the New Brompton team, this Henderson appeared only sporadically, with the last of his eight Southern League appearances coming at home to Portsmouth on 12 December 1908.[4]

He joined Bradford City in May 1909, leaving the club in July 1910 to sign for Grimsby Town.[5] During his time with Bradford City he made four appearances in the Football League.[6]
