At club level Watson is an All-Ireland medalist with Loughgiel Shamrocks. He has also won four Ulster medals and fourcounty club championship medals.

In February 2014, Watson confirmed through Twitter that he had been approached by Dublin to play for them as he has continued to be omitted from the Antrim senior setup.
