Former Gallagher Premiership winner Sam Hill has hung up his boots at 32.
The centre spent a decade at Exeter Chiefs, leaving Sandy Park for Sale Sharks after Exeter’s 2020 double of the Gallagher Premiership and Investec Champions Cup.

Hill was an England squad regular under Stuart Lancaster and Eddie Jones, but never won a full cap—his highest honours came with England A.
After three seasons at Sale, he had stints with Blackheath and in the U.S. with Major League Rugby side Houston SaberCats.
Following two seasons in America, Hill has decided to bring down the curtain on his professional rugby career.
“So after dragging it out for the last few years, it’s probably about time I call it a day. I’ve absolutely loved the past 15 years of playing professional rugby, it was literally my dream and the only thing I ever wanted to do growing up,” Hill wrote on Instagram.
“It’s allowed me to travel all over the world, create lifetime friends and see some unimaginable sights on team socials. Big thanks to Exeter Chiefs, Sale Sharks & the Houston SaberCats for the opportunity.
“The biggest thank you I want to give is to my parents for sacrificing their time every weekend driving me all over the country and giving all of their support to allow me to do all of this, I never would have even got close if it wasn’t for them.”
