Born in Glenbeigh, County Kerry, Price was a doctor by profession and served overseas as a Surgeon lieutenant in the Royal Navy, before gaining two Ireland caps as a front row forward in 1920. He debuted against Scotland at Inverleith, missed the next match with injury, then scored a try in a loss to France. His club rugby was played for Dublin University.[1]

Price spent most of the 1920s as a medical officer in Ceylon.[2]

Moving to Reading, Price was partner in a medical practice with the town's former mayor Sir George Stewart Abram.[2]
