Playing career

Webb started his career with Nikao Sokattak.

He would later switch to Tupapa Maraerenga, where he would earn light upon himself by proving himself as one of the Cook Islands' brightest talents, displaying his technicality and flair alongside his brother Tahitoa.

Teammate Paavo Mustonen described him as the "most EXCITING up-and-coming talent from the country".

He made his first OFC Men's Champions League appearance for the club on 15 February 2025 against Vaipuna, thus becoming the youngest player in international club football.

He would also make 2 appearances in the competition proper, playing against Ifira Black Bird and PNG Hekari.

On 28 January 2026, it was announced that Webb and fellow Cook Islands youth international Maui Denny had been recruited by Mount Albert Grammar School in Auckland as part of the Cook Islands Football Association's scholarship programme.

During his second campaign in the OFC Men's Champions League, his team Tupapa went undefeated in the qualifying stage, where he scored against qualification rivals Vaivase-Tai in a 1-1 draw.

International career

He has played for the Cook Islands at U15 and U17 age levels, competing at the 2023 OFC U-17 Championship, where he scored a goal in the group stage against Vanuatu.
