Youth career

Butler's youth career began at age 12 with the Golden Star in Port Royal. During the next three years, he had played in the President's Cup, Minor League and Sid Bartlett League. When he was fourteen, Butler left Port Royal All Age School for Dunoon Technical High School, where he played for the school's football team for three years.

When he was seventeen, Butler began his career with Harbour View. During a tournament in Guadeloupe, L'Etoile spotted Butler and signed him to a contract when he was nineteen. In 1990, Butler entered Southern New Hampshire University (then known as New Hampshire College) where he played with the men's soccer team from 1990 to 1993. He received All-Americana recognition three times, twice as a first team (1992 and 1993).[1] Butler graduated in 1994 with a bachelor's degree in sociology and a minor in computer information. In 2001, he was inducted in the SNHU Penmen Hall of Fame.[2]

Following graduation, he moved to Portugal where he spent a single season with Torreense. In 1995, he moved to French club Stade Brest. He also spent time with the North Jersey Imperials of the USISL.

In February 1996, the San Jose Clash of Major League Soccer (MLS) drafted Butler in the second round (eighteenth overall) of the league's Inaugural Player Draft. He spent the 1996 season in San Jose before being traded to the Columbus Crew for Mac Cozier on November 6, 1996. After appearing in only one game, scoring one goal, for the Crew, Butler left the team to concentrate on his national team commitments in the lead up to the 1998 FIFA World Cup.

On 11 March 1998, Butler signed a one-year contract with the Cleveland Crunch of the National Professional Soccer League (NPSL). He played four games at the end of the 1997-1998 season, then retired.[3]
