Born in Ecclesfield on the outskirts of Sheffield,[1] Smith had played for his local side from 1889 until around 1890.[1] He was signed by Sheffield United in November 1891 but failed to break into the first team and left the following summer.[1] He moved to Barnsley where he played regularly for several seasons and featured in their first season in the Football League, making eleven appearances in the competition all together.[1]
