Playing career

Hodge completed a scholarship at Notts County, before he signing with Lincoln City on a short-term contract 2 February 2015 after impressing manager Chris Moyses on trial.[2] He signed a new one-year contract the following month.[3] He made his first-team debut on 25 April, in a 0–0 draw at Dartford.[4]

He joined Northern Premier League Premier Division side Stamford on loan and made his debut in a 3–1 defeat at Frickley Athletic on 14 November 2015.[5] He scored his first goal in senior football on 26 January, in a 4–1 Doodson Cup victory over Buxton at the Zeeco Stadium.[6] He made a total of 12 appearances for the "Daniels", scoring one goal.[7] On 23 February 2016, he joined National League North club Gainsborough Trinity on loan.[8] He played five matches for the "Holy Blues", before returning to Sincil Bank. He played nine games for the "Imps" across the 2015–16 campaign.

Hodge returned to the Northern Premier League Premier Division on an initial one-month loan at Stafford Rangers on 9 September 2016.[9] He returned to the National League North on a one-month loan at A.F.C. Telford United in December.[10] He played 15 games for the "Bucks" to help Telford to a 17th-place finish at the end of the 2016–17 season, whilst he also featured twice for parent club Lincoln, who achieved promotion to the English Football League as champions of the National League.[11] He was released by Lincoln manager Danny Cowley in June 2017.[12]

Style of play

Speaking in August 2017, Hodge said that "my best quality is probably my pace, and being a winger I like to stay out wide, I like to be in one-v-one situations against the defender, but I am more than happy doing dog work too".[13]
