Hill joined Canberra for the 2004 SEABL season with the Australian Institute of Sport, where the Hahndorf-born wing developed in the national institute pathway and scored a SEABL career-high 32 points against Dandenong in May 2004.
Hill continued with Canberra for the 2005 SEABL season, remaining in the Australian Institute of Sport men’s group alongside future senior players including Joe Ingles, Nathan Jawai, Patrick Mills, Adam Gibson, Andrew Ogilvy, Stephen Weigh and Ryan Kersten.

He averaged 22.3 points, 9.6 rebounds and 4.5 assists across 23 Central ABL games, while earning All Star Five selection and the Frank Angove Medal during his first Eastern stint.
The Eastern run continued in 2007, with Hill playing two Central ABL games and averaging 4.5 points, 1.0 assist and 0.5 rebounds. His wider Eastern tenure extended through the 2008 SA State League season before he returned to a larger statistical role the following year.
Hill stayed with Mount Barker for the 2009 Central ABL season and averaged 27.7 points, 8.5 rebounds and 5.6 assists across 13 games. That season brought another All Star Five selection, with his scoring and playmaking giving Eastern a high-usage wing option in the SA State League.
Hill remained with Eastern for the 2010 Central ABL season and averaged 22.5 points, 10.4 rebounds and 4.8 assists across 13 games. He earned a third All Star Five selection for Eastern, adding another state league honour to his earlier 2006 and 2009 selections.

Hill returned to Mount Gambier for the 2013 SEABL season and helped the Pioneers reach the national championship game. He scored 24 points in the South men’s final win over Nunawading before missing the final moments with a calf injury, then had 13 points and nine rebounds in the SEABL championship loss to Dandenong. He was also named in the All SEABL Men’s Team during that season.
Hill continued with Mount Gambier for the 2014 SEABL season and was central to the Pioneers winning the SEABL championship. In the 85–71 Grand Final win over Nunawading, he produced 20 points and 11 rebounds, added seven fourth-quarter points and was named SEABL Grand Final MVP.

The roster featured Hill alongside senior pieces including Matt Sutton, Erik Burdon, Damien Johnson and Tyrone Lee during a season that extended Mount Gambier’s run as a national contender.
Hill remained with Mount Gambier for the 2016 SEABL season, with the Pioneers winning another conference title and reaching another national final during their multi-year finals run. The season formed part of the club’s stretch of five straight national championship series appearances from 2013 to 2017.
Hill continued with Mount Gambier for the 2017 SEABL season and helped the Pioneers win the East Conference title before claiming the SEABL championship. In the 92–85 Grand Final win over Dandenong, he scored 16 points as Mount Gambier won its third SEABL title in four years.
Hill returned to Mount Gambier for the 2018 SEABL season, but a degenerative ankle injury ended his campaign and led to his retirement from playing.
