Louis Singleton (33), another signing from Blackburn, is hardworking utility back. Louis’ favoured position is scrum half, but he is comfortable right across the backline. He has international honours, having represented Malta Rugby Union, Malta Rugby League, and Malta 7s. His previous clubs include Macclesfield, Rossendale, and Sale FC.

On signing for Hoppers, Louis said “Hoppers has always been a club I’ve admired, so when the opportunity to join the club came, I jumped at it. From speaking to Dan, Danny, and Greg, they’ve got a great playing philosophy in place, with a lot of ambition for the playing group. I’m looking forward to being a part of it.”

Dan Orwin said, “We had a positive meeting with Louis, a few weeks back. We know that he will be a great addition to our squad. He brings lots of experience and keeps himself in top physical condition. Those that have played with him speak very highly of him, and we are happy that he has chosen to sign for us!”
