Christopher Andrew Hill (born 3 November 1987) is an English professional rugby league footballer who plays as a prop for the Salford Red Devils in the Super League, and England and Great Britain at international level.

He previously played for the Leigh Centurions in the Championship.[3] and Warrington Wolves.

Early career

Hill signed for Leigh from local Wigan amateur club New Springs Lions in 2004, and started his career as a stand-off or loose forward before moving to prop, progressing through Leigh's service area, scholarship and youth ranks before moving into the first team at the Leigh Centurions.

In 2011, Hill's impressive displays in the Championship saw him earn a three-year deal with Warrington in Super League, which saw him join the Warrington squad in 2012, remaining with Leigh on a dual registration until the end of the 2011 season. In light of this, his then-coach Ian Millward predicted future national caps for Hill, with his nurturing at Warrington.

Hill was named in the Dream team for the season, and was also the Top Metre Maker of the season. He was rewarded for this amazing season with a contract extension with the club, which will keep him with the Warrington club until at least November 2021.
