He was in Farleigh house. ==Club career== Having overcome a career-threatening injury to his left knee in November 1999,〔 Hipkiss made his first start for the Tigers' U21s against Leeds on 9 November 2001, scoring a try on his debut. He was called into the first team squad for summer training in 2002 and had his Premiership debut away at Leeds that year. He quickly became a regular member of the successful Tigers 2002–03 U21 team, and captained a Leicester side in the 2006 Middlesex Sevens at Twickenham.

During the 2009–10 season, Hipkiss suffered an injury midway through the season, but returned to play for Tigers' A-league side in their semi-final against the Saracens' A-league side. He scored a try, and the team won 23–11. He went on to score a further try in the final, where the team won the 'A' league.〔 〕 He continued his streak of tries when playing as a substitute in the 2009–10 Guinness Premiership final against the senior Saracens side. The Tigers went one point behind four minutes from time, and Hipkiss wriggled through a high tackle from the retiring Glen Jackson to score the winning try, to leave the game at 33–27.
