==Playing career== Tawan's talent was first discovered by national team coach Chatchai Paholpat, who gave him his senior international debut against Bangladesh in the first round of 1994 World Cup qualification. He went on to make 109 more appearances for Thailand, scoring 19 goals, playing at two AFC Asian Cups – the latter as captain and on home soil – and gathering numerous accolades.
In 1995, Chatchai led Tawan to his former club Bangkok Bank. Tawan stayed there for two years before spending five more at the Sembawang Rangers, where he partnered fellow Thais Thawatchai Damrong-Ongtrakul, Bamrung Boonprom, Niweat Siriwong and Teerasak Po-on. All of them gradually left Singapore seeing the Stallions' lack of success, with Tawan going to a Hoàng Anh Gia Lai side under Arjhan Srong-ngamsub's tutelage and spearheaded by Kiatisuk Senamuang and Dusit Chalermsan.
Tawan returned to Thailand once his contract expired in 2007 and retired two years later, having guided BEC Tero Sasana to two consecutive third-place finishes in the Thai Premier League (2007 and 2008).
