Career

Brentford

A forward, Hippolyte began his career as a schoolboy at Harrow Youth League side Westway in London.[3] He also had brief spells at Fulham, Queens Park Rangers and Reading.[4] He joined the youth ranks at League One side Brentford in 2010 and was offered a scholarship deal in the summer of 2011.[5] In his first season as a scholar, Hippolyte was part of the youth side which advanced to the fourth round of the 2011–12 FA Youth Cup.[6] Hippolyte scored prolifically for the youth team, topping the goalscoring charts in both his seasons as a scholar.[7] He was released at the end of the 2012–13 season, having failed to be offered a professional contract.[5] Looking back in October 2014, Hippolyte said "off the pitch I was slack. I was late to training and wasn’t switched on enough. It was the worst possible outcome because if it was due to lack of ability I could’ve accepted it".[4]

Southall (loan)

Hippolyte joined Spartan South Midlands League Division One side Southall on a work experience loan deal on 11 January 2013.[8] He scored on his debut versus London Lions the following day, netting a late equaliser in a 2–2 draw.[9] His second and final goal for the club came in a 2–0 win over Kings Langley on 5 March, picking up the man of the match award.[10][11] Hippolyte returned to Brentford when his loan expired, having scored two goals in four appearances.[12]

After unsuccessful trials at Cambridge United,[13] Blackburn Rovers,[14] Oxford United,[15] Charlton Athletic[16] and York City, Hippolyte returned to Southall in November 2013.

Hippolyte began his 2015–16 season with what proved to be the winning goal in a 2–1 victory over Clyde in the first round of Livi's defence of the Scottish Challenge Cup.[35] He began the season as a starter, before reverting to a substitute role in October 2015.[36] He departed the Almondvale Stadium on 29 January 2016, having made 64 appearances and scored 8 goals in 18 months with Livingston.[37]
