[5] Alf Wood was born in Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, and he died aged 79 in Oldham, Lancashire, England.
Wood won caps for England while at Gloucester RFC in 1908 against France, Wales, and Ireland.
Alf Wood played fullback, and scored 3-goals, in Oldham's 9–10 defeat by Wigan in the 1908 Lancashire Cup Final during the 1908–09 season at Wheater's Field, Broughton, Salford on Saturday 19 December 1908.
In 1913, both Billy Hall and Dave Holland left Gloucester RFC to join Oldham, following Alf Wood who had made the same journey in 1908.
All three men played in Great Britain's "Rorke's Drift" Test match against Australia in 1914, with Alf Wood kicking the four goals that would be the difference in the end.
