With limited possession Woodford could do little but battle against the tide, but they lost the chance to avoid the whitewash by kicking possession away on numerous occasions.
There is no league fixture on Saturday, although Woodford's Flameheads side play a West's Select in a friendly fixture in support of Help for Heroes, the British Forces Charity.
The game is at home and starts at 1.30pm.
