Career

Ross began his career in the academies at Southampton, Arsenal, Reading, Crystal Palace, Colchester United[2] and Woking.[3][4]

He then joined Ashford Town (Middlesex) in 2008, before joining Carshalton Athletic.[5] Brief spells at Godalming Town and Welling United followed, before joining Hampton & Richmond Borough.^{[citation needed]}

Ross joined Cambridge United in August 2012 as backup to Jonathan Hedge.[6] During the season he was loaned to Eastbourne Borough, who he joined permanently for 2013–14.

He briefly joined Farnborough at the start of 2014–15, before joining Whitehawk. After two years with the Hawks, he joined Macclesfield Town for 2016–17.[7] He joined Barnet on a one-year deal on 1 July 2017 after rejecting a new deal with the Silkmen.[8] Ross made his debut for the Bees in the EFL Cup against Brighton & Hove Albion on 22 August 2017.[9] He played 33 league games for the Bees that season but his contract was not renewed following their relegation.[10]

He was released by Barnet at the end of the 2017–18 season.[11]

Following a spell with Leatherhead,[12] Ross returned to Woking in September 2018.[13] On the same day of his arrival, he made his debut during a 2–2 draw against Torquay United.[14] On 12 May 2019, Ross was part of the side that triumphed over Welling United in the National League South play-off final to secure promotion back to the National League at the first time of asking.[15] On 12 April 2021, Ross signed a new two-year deal with the club.[16]
