Youth teams
He began his international career for the under-17 team during qualification for the 2011 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, where Jomal scored a pair of goals in the final group stage match against Bermuda.[15][16][17] In February 2011, during the continental competition, Williams made an additional two starting appearances against Jamaica and Guatemala, which witnessed Trinidad and Tobago advance to the quarterfinals following a respective draw and win.[18][19] However, the Soca Warriors would lose in the quarterfinals against Canada.[20]
The following year, Williams was called up to the under-23 team in preparation for their qualification attempt for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.[13] He made one appearance after coming on as a 76th minute substitute for Mekeil Williams during the final match, which ended in a 2–0 loss against Honduras that eliminated Trinidad and Tobago from the competition.[21] In August 2012, Williams scored two goals in three matches for the under-20 team during their first round of qualification for the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship.[22] However, in November 2012, he made three additional appearances for the Soca Warriors, which witnessed the team finish a disappointing bottom in their final qualification.[23]
In June 2015, Williams made two appearances during another early exit for the under-23 team from qualification for the 2015 CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying Championship following a loss to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.[24][25] Although Trinidad and Tobago did not qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, the Soca Warriors participated in the Pan American Games hosted in Toronto the following month. Williams came on as a substitute during the final two matches, which witnessed the Soca Warriors eliminated after three consecutive losses to Uruguay, Paraguay, and Mexico.[26][27]
