Career & Clubs
Sheffield United
Cammack began his career at Sheffield United. He scored one goal in seven games for England Youth. The "Blades" finished tenth in the First Division in 1971–72 and 14th in 1972–73 under the stewardship of John Harris. Following the appointment of Ken Furphy, United finished 13th in 1973–74 and then sixth in 1974–75. Cammack had made 36 league appearances during his four years at Bramall Lane but later claimed that "Jimmy Sirrel came in at Sheffield, and I wasn't Scottish enough for him. He signed a load of Scottish lads and said: 'Right, I'm selling you!'"
Chesterfield
Cammack then signed with Joe Shaw's Chesterfield. The "Spireites" finished 14th in the Third Division in 1975–76. Under the stewardship of Arthur Cox, Chesterfield finished 18th in 1976–77 and ninth in 1977–78, before narrowly avoiding relegation by one place and four points in 1978–79. He scored 21 goals in 113 league games in his four years at Saltergate.
Scunthorpe to Lincoln
Cammack was sold to Scunthorpe United for £15,000 in September 1979. His first spell at Scunthorpe saw Cammack score 28 goals in 90 appearances in all competitions before Colin Murphy's Lincoln City signed him for an undisclosed fee in 1981. He found life at Lincoln difficult, however, still commuting from Scunthorpe after a proposed house move fell through and falling out with "Imps" manager Murphy, amid allegations that he was being played out of position.

Personal
In the early 1990s, Cammack again returned to Scunthorpe United, this time to coach in the club's academy under managers Bill Green and Richard Money, before the return of Mick Buxton as manager led to his departure from the club. Cammack has since worked in the licensing trade and is a keen golfer.
