Bradley Maurice Charles Woods-Garness (born 27 June 1986) is an English-born Montserratian footballer who plays as a striker or winger.
He has been capped internationally for Montserrat.
As a youth he started out at Chelsea and then Wycombe Wanderers before joining Barnet, playing twice for the first team in the Football League Trophy and Conference League Cup, before establishing himself as a goal scorer, initially at Welwyn Garden City where he was top scorer in the 2005–2006 season,[3] and then at Farnborough, Billericay Town, Sutton United and Canvey Island.
After leaving Lowestoft Town at the end of the 2015–16 season, Woods-Garness started the 2016–17 season at Bishop's Stortford,[4] followed by a number of brief spells at Cray Wanderers, Cambridge City,[5] Chalfont St Peter,[6] and Ware.[7] He finished the season at Whitehawk.[8] On 12 August 2017 he featured for Bedford Town in the Southern League Division One East season opener.[9] Woods-Garnes joined Wingate & Finchley in January 2020.[10]
Woods-Garness was called up to the Montserrat national football team in August 2012, for the 2012 Caribbean Championship First Round qualifiers, held in Martinique. He helped Montserrat achieve their first victory since 1995 and their first ever victory since joining FIFA, beating the British Virgin Islands 7–0.[11] He became Montserrat's joint-record scorer on 22 March 2019, with 4 goals, after scoring the winner in a 2019–20 CONCACAF Nations League qualification game against Cayman Islands.[12]
Woods-Garness also represented England at schoolboy level.[13]

Woods-Garness was educated at Highbury Grove School (1997–2002) and Southgate College (2002–2004).
While playing for Sutton United in June 2011, Woods-Garness was arrested and spent six months in prison awaiting trial for allegedly intimidating a witness in a murder trial, in an incident that also involved the then Leyton Orient defender Elliot Omozusi. He was eventually found not guilty and returned to play for Sutton United, having always enjoyed the full support of manager Paul Doswell.[15]
Woods-Garness is also a frequent guest on 'No Behaviour Podcast' hosted by ex-rapper Margs and Loons.
