Waiters began his career as an amateur with Northern League club Bishop Auckland, moving to Macclesfield Town in 1958.

1959

He was capped as an England Amateur in May 1959 while at Loughborough College.

Turning professional, he appeared over 250 times for Blackpool.

1964

Waiters retired in 1967, as Blackpool were relegated from the First Division.

Taking up coaching, he worked for the Football Association as a Regional Coach, and for Liverpool's youth development program before moving to Burnley.

Waiters began coaching with the England national youth side and led them to a European Championship held in Italy (1973).

1985

In 1985, his team won the CONCACAF Championship, qualifying them to the next year's World Cup.

1986

He managed the Vancouver Whitecaps to an NASL championship, and was in charge of the Canada national team, when they qualified for the 1986 World Cup, which is their first appearance in the tournament.

The team went on to lose their two remaining games and go scoreless for the finals.

1990

Waiters managed the team again briefly in 1990.

Waiters wrote books on soccer skills and coaching.

2000

Since 2000 he took World of Soccer to a new level, developing Total Player Development, which in turn was the base for Byte Size Coaching, a simple yet comprehensive website for soccer parents, coaches and volunteers.

Byte Size Coaching is now used by over 350 clubs ranging from Canada, America, UK, Australia and Singapore.

Byte Size Coaching was created to help community clubs and soccer associations reach all their coaches.
