In 1993, Young began his professional career with Hazard United which won the Jamaica National Premier League title. In 1994, he signed with the Charleston Battery of USISL. He scored 23 goals in 22 games and was named to the USISL All League team. In 1995, he exceeded his previous year's goals total with 25 goals in 24 games, again being named to the All League team. In February 1996, the Columbus Crew selected Young in the 13th round (121st overall) of the 1996 MLS Inaugural Player Draft. He played only four games for Columbus, spending much of the season with the Rochester Rhinos of the A-League and the South Carolina Shamrocks in the USISL. He was named to the USISL All League team.[3] The Battery released him at the end of the season. In 1998, he began the season with the Charleston Battery. After scoring three goals in seven games, he was called up by the Tampa Bay Mutiny On 19 June 1998.[4] He played fourteen games for the Mutiny, but failed to score a goal. On 2 November 1998, the Mutiny waived Young.[5] In 1999, he played for the Rochester Rhinos, Hershey Wildcats and Maryland Mania in the USL A-League.

At some point, Young became the head coach of Portmore United in Jamaica National Premier League. On 27 February 2007, Linval Dixon replaced Young as head coach.[6] In 2007, Young was a coach of a GSA U-13 soccer team in Lilburn, Georgia.

After a six-month hiatus to coach under-11 and under-15 boys in Atlanta, Young returned to Jamaica as coach of August Town F.C. in late December 2009 through February 2010.
