Club career

edit

Wood was one of a group of Caymanian players identified by the country's football federation who they believed would benefit from playing overseas. He joined Ashford Town (Middlesex) in England after being invited over in late 2010 on an initial short term basis, although the move was extended then until the end of the season.[5] He made his first-team debut for the club in late January 2012[6] going on to make a total of 13 appearances.[7]

He returned to England in March 2012 joining Evesham Town on trial,[8] playing one league game for the club.
