Thomas Doyle (born 29 June 1999) is an English rugby league footballer who plays as a for the Wakefield Trinity in Betfred Championship. He previously played for Bradford Bulls and Keighley Cougars.[1]
Doyle was born in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. He played as an amateur for both Milford ARLFC and Stanningley ARLFC. He was then brought up in the youth system at the Bulls via the Bradford Bulls Academy.
Doyle first appearance was in 2018 against Dewsbury Rams in pre-season friendly but he did not make his first-class debut until 2019 when he played in the Championship match against Rochdale Hornets, marking his debut with two tries.[2] A further four league and 1895 Cup appearances followed but he did not add to his try tally.
In the 2020 season Doyle made three league appearances scoring two tries and two appearances in the Challenge Cup before the season was abandoned due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
2021 saw Doyle become the Bull's starting hooker as he made 20 appearances, all in the starting line-up and scored five tries during the season. At the end of the season Doyle signed a one-year extension.[3]
The 2022 season saw Doyle make 27 appearances in league and cup with another seven tries scored. During the season there was speculation that Doyle was being the subject of attention from several, unspecified, Super League clubs,[4] but at the end of the season Doyle chose to join Keighley on a two-year deal.[5]
On 26 Sep 2023 it was announced that he had signed for Wakefield Trinity in their bid to return to Super League following their relegation in 2023.[6]
