Professional
Holmes was drafted in the second round (seventeenth overall) in the 2005 MLS Supplemental Draft by New England Revolution, but despite featuring heavily for the Revs in the MLS Reserve Division,[1] played just one game in Major League Soccer - a 1–1 tie with the Kansas City Wizards on June 4, 2005 - before being waived on on November 16, 2005.[2] He appears not to have played professionally in 2006.
In the spring of 2007, Holmes signed with the Wilmington Hammerheads of the USL Second Division, and spent two years playing with the team. He had two loan spells in the USL First Division - one in July 2007 with the Rochester Rhinos,[3] and one in August 2008 with the Charleston Battery,[4] before signing with the Real Maryland Monarchs in 2009.
