Club Career

Meekison signed his first professional contract with Dundee United in May 2019, having been attached to the club's youth academy for ten years. In February 2020, he joined Scottish League Two club Cove Rangers on loan until the end of the 2019-20 season, making his senior debut as a substitute in a win over Stenhousemuir. He made three substitute appearances for Cove before the season was ended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic. With both Dundee United and Cove being declared winners of their respective divisions, Meekison was connected with two title-winning teams that season.

In September 2020, Meekison went on loan again, joining Lowland League club The Spartans. He was recalled by Dundee United in January 2021 after the pandemic caused another suspension of lower league football. He scored eight goals for Spartans during his loan, including a hat-trick against East Stirlingshire in the South Region Challenge Cup.
