Playing career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

Born in Greenwich, Hooper began his footballing career at Cray Wanderers Academy. He made one first-team appearance for Cray in a London Senior Cup tie in February 2011.[2] On 19 August 2011, Hooper signed a two-year scholarship deal with Newcastle United, and scored a hat-trick against Chelsea under-18's the following day.[1] On 14 November 2012, Hooper was loaned to Northern League side Darlington 1883.[3] He made one appearance for Darlington, where he played in the Northern League Cup.[4] A month later, he joined Workington of the Conference North on loan.[5] In February 2013, he was released by Newcastle manager Alan Pardew.[6]

In July 2013, Hooper signed a one-year deal with Northampton Town after impressing on trial.[7] On 3 August, he made his debut in the Football League, replacing Danny Emerton late into a 1–0 defeat to York City at Bootham Crescent.[8] He joined Conference Premier side Alfreton Town on a one-month loan deal on 28 November 2013.[9] He made his debut for Nicky Law's "Reds" in the FA Trophy in a 1–0 defeat to Nuneaton Town at North Street two days later.[10] On 14 March 2014, Hooper joined Conference South side Farnborough on loan until the end of the 2013–14 season.[11] He scored six goals in 11 games which helped the "Yellows" to avoid relegation.[12] He was released by Northampton at the end of the season.[13]

In June 2014, Hooper signed with Lee Bradbury's Conference South side Havant & Waterlooville.[14] The "Hawks" reached the play-offs at the end of the 2014–15 season, losing to Boreham Wood at the semi-final stage.[15] He finished the campaign with 13 goals in 37 league games, and he also scored seven further goals in FA Cup qualifying, Hampshire Senior Cup and Portsmouth Senior Cup games.[16] He was called up to the England C team in May 2015, but did not win a cap.[17]

Port Vale

[edit]

Hooper had trials at Scottish sides Dunfermline Athletic, Inverness Caledonian Thistle and Raith Rovers in summer 2015, before playing two friendlies for Cheltenham Town.[18] He impressed enough to win a contract with the club and was photographed with manager Gary Johnson when he was informed of interest from League One club Port Vale; Hooper sneaked out of Whaddon Road to speak with Port Vale shortly before he was due to sign a contract with Cheltenham.[19] The Cheltenham club website initially reported that Hooper had signed a one-year contract.[20] In August 2015, he was revealed as a Port Vale player after signing a two-year contract with the club.[21] The Football Association ruled that Port Vale pay Havant & Waterlooville £8,400 in compensation as the player was under 24.[22] Manager Rob Page gave Hooper substitute appearances of gradually increasing length, and he scored his first goal for the "Valiants" after coming on at half-time in a defeat to Millwall at The Den on 17 January, which was his tenth appearance for the club.[23] He then began starting games, however, lost his first-team place to new signing Theo Robinson in February.[24] On 12 March, he was named as The Sentinel's "star player" after coming off the bench on 66 minutes at Peterborough United to score a goal as Vale turned round a 2–1 deficit to win the game 3–2.[25] After scoring three goals in five games in April, he won the first ever League One PFA Fans' Player of the Month award.[26]

He entered the 2016–17 pre-season in good fitness after having put in extra work with former long jump athlete Matt Burton, alongside Charlton Athletic players Jordan Cousins and Tareiq Holmes-Dennis.[27] However, new manager Bruno Ribeiro began to play him on the right-wing rather than at centre-forward, and Hooper returned to former club Northampton Town – now in League One and managed by former Vale boss Rob Page – on a five-month loan on 22 August.[28][29] He scored his first goal for the "Cobblers" in a 6–0 victory over Harrow Borough in an FA Cup first-round match at Sixfields on 5 November.[30] He made eight starts and five substitute appearances for the "Cobblers", before being ruled out with a thigh injury in November and returning to Vale Park in January when Michael Brown replaced Ribeiro as manager.[31] He was named in the EFL Team of the Week after he played a crucial role in Vale's 3–2 home victory over Swindon Town in a "relegation six-pointer" on 12 March, scoring two goals from left-midfield – including a perfectly placed free kick – and forcing a red card from defender Bradley Barry.[32][33] He was released by Brown following the club's relegation in May 2017.[34]

Grimsby Town

[edit]

On 8 August 2017, Hooper signed a two-year contract with League Two side Grimsby Town on a free transfer, having spent the last few weeks on trial at the club.[35] He scored seven goals in 35 appearances for the "Marinewrs" throughout the 2017–18 season, including a hat-trick on the final day at Forest Green Rovers on 5 May that earned him a place on the EFL team of the week.[36][37] He was switched to the left-wing by new manager Michael Jolley, who replaced Russell Slade in March, and Hooper credited this change to his run of form at the end of the campaign.[38]

On 5 December 2018, Hooper joined National League side Bromley on a one-month loan deal after dropping out of the first-team picture at Grimsby.[39] He said that "I live ten minutes away [from Hayes Lane], so it's ideal for me!".[40] The loan was later extended until the end of the 2018–19 season.[41] On 8 December, he made his first start for Bromley in a 2–0 away loss to Gateshead in the National League.[42] On 15 January, he scored a hat-trick in a 3–1 victory over Charlton Athletic in the quarter-finals of the Kent Senior Cup.[43] He ended the campaign as one of the National League's ten highest-scorers on 14 goals despite only being at a mid-table side for the second half of the season.[44] He was released by Grimsby at the end of the 2018–19 season.[45]

Wrexham

[edit]

On 18 June 2019, Hooper signed for National League club Wrexham on a one-year deal.[46] Manager Bryan Hughes said Hooper was his "main target" of the summer, and hoped he would provide the goals that the "Reds" lacked in their failed 2018–19 promotion push.[47][48] He scored on his debut for the "Red Dragons" on 3 August, his headed goal levelled the scores in a 2–1 win over Barrow in the season opener at the Racecourse Ground.[49] However, he picked up a groin injury on 26 August and then went the next two months without a start, before marking his return to the first-team with the only goal of the game in the FA Cup replay with Chesterfield on 22 October.[50] However, he was then sidelined for another two months after picking up an ankle injury four days later.[51] Hooper and the club management were forced to deny rumours that he was refusing to play despite being deemed fully fit.[52] Speaking in January, Hooper said that he appreciated manager Dean Keates's faith in him.[53] He scored seven goals in 22 appearances in the 2019–20 season, which was permanently suspended on 26 March due to the COVID-19 pandemic in England, with Wrexham in 20th-place.[54]

Barnet

[edit]

On 11 September 2020, Hooper signed with National League side Barnet.[55] He scored eight goals in 28 games for the "Bees" during the 2020–21 season and was then released upon the expiry of his contract.[56][57]

South Shields

[edit]

Hooper had a trial with Hartlepool United in September 2021.[58] On 5 November, he signed with South Shields of the Northern Premier League Premier Division.[59] Manager Graham Fenton said that "negotiations have taken place over quite a period of time and it's great that JJ has committed his long-term future to the club... we look forward to seeing him score many, many goals for South Shields".[60] He scored four goals in a 4–2 win over Nantwich Town on 26 February.[61] He totalled 12 goals in 21 league games to help Kevin Phillips's "Mariners" qualify for the play-offs at the end of the 2021–22 season. However, they would lose a penalty shoot-out with Warrington Town in the semi-finals.[62][63]

In November 2022, Hooper was granted permission to speak to multiple clubs about a potential move away.[64] In January 2023, Hooper's contract was terminated by mutual consent after he failed to appear for the club in the first half of the 2022–23 season.[65]

Gloucester City

[edit]

On 18 January 2023, Hooper joined National League North club Gloucester City on a deal until the end of the 2022–23 season.[66] He played seven games for the club, scoring one goal.[56]

Blyth Spartans

[edit]

On 6 July 2023, Hooper joined fellow National League North side Blyth Spartans, re-uniting with former South Shields boss Graham Fenton, whom he cited as a factor in his decision to join the club.[67] He endured injuries in the first half of the 2023–24 season, though was praised by manager Jon Shaw for finding a run of good form around new year.[68] He ended the campaign with 11 goals from 25 league games as Spartans were relegated in 21st place.[56]

Spennymoor Town

[edit]

On 9 August 2024, Hooper returned to the National League North with Spennymoor Town after impressing Graeme Lee during a trial.[69]

Style of play

[edit]

Primarily a forward, he can also play as a winger.[70] Speaking in December 2015, Port Vale assistant manager Paul Bodin said that Hooper had excellent natural "one-on-one basic technical finishing" skills, but needed further full-time training to improve his other attributes.[71]

Coaching career

[edit]

In March 2020, he opened Kixx, a football academy in Bromley, alongside teacher Jude Imo-Itah and fellow professional Ade Azeez.[72]
