George was a forceful, bustling centre-forward who first came to prominence leading Mortlake to the Hammersmith League title in 1908/09. He then joined Tooting Town where he stayed for five years, three as captain, originally playing alongside Wimbledon's 1912 resuscitator Johnny Canham, and representing Surrey.

He Joined Fulham in 1914, scoring 5 goals in 6 League games for them before War interrupted.

During the War he served in the Royal Navy Air Force, which later became the Royal Air Force, representing the Navy twice, against the Army and the Royal Flying Corp and the RAF against an Army & Navy XI.

After the War, he joined Brentford, scoring once in 6 senior appearances in the 1919/20 season, and the following campaign he signed Athenian League forms for Wimbledon.

After a successful season at Wimbledon, where he lead them to second place, the Dons were elected to the Isthmian League, and it appears that his previous professional status made him ineligible and he moved to Kent League professionals Margate.
