His career spanned the amateur and professional era in rugby.

In 1989 he was playing for West of Scotland[1][2] but in the same year he moved to Glasgow High Kelvinside.

He was playing for Glasgow High Kelvinside[3] from 1989 to 1997.

Prior to their professionalism in 1996, Hawkes represented the Glasgow District.[4][5]

When Glasgow High Kelvinside merged with Glasgow Academicals to form Glasgow Hawks in 1997, the Wing played for the newly merged side.[6][7][8][9] (The merger to form the Glasgow Hawks was incomplete and both Glasgow Academicals and Glasgow High Kelvinside survived as smaller spin-off clubs.)

He was in the provincial professional Glasgow squad for the 1997-98 season. He played in the friendly against the Australian provincial side Brumbies on 6 December 1997 when he came on temporarily for the injured Gavin Fraser.[10]

In 2003, Hawkes was playing for Hamilton RFC.[11][12]

In 2010, it was announced that Hawkes would be returning to Glasgow High Kelvinside to be a Back Three Coach.[13]

In 2013, Hawkes was playing for Hamilton RFC.[14]
