Mark Wood

Referees and Competition Manager
Favourite Team: Chelsea
Favourite Player: Gianfranco Zola

Mark's role at the Surrey County FA involves managing the Referees Department and dealing with the competitions the County runs.

Mark admits he was never a very good footballer, so decided to take up refereeing and spoil it for others, which he has managed to do now since 1977.

Prior to joining the Surrey County FA, Mark worked in the catering industry. He gained his qualifications at Brighton College and worked at various industrial catering units including the BBC, Lombards, CGU and Canons. Mark also had a very successful spell as a biscuit designer.

The part of the job Mark likes the most is seeing people enjoying their refereeing and progressing up the promotion ladder. He also enjoys surprises so it is always a treat tidying the work fridge and discovering new varieties of mould!
