Early years

A goalkeeper, Price began his career at Richmond Villa and played for the Medical Corps and Aldershot Depot representative teams while serving in the British Army. While with Aldershot, he won the 1907 cup for best all-round sportsman at the barracks. He returned to his native West Midlands to join hometown Birmingham & District League club Walsall in October 1908, staying with the club for ten months.

Stockport County

Price moved to the Football League in August 1909, when he signed for Second Division club Stockport County.

Brentford
