In February 2016, Hooper signed on loan for Scottish League Two club Queen's Park who gained promotion that season on an emergency loan deal for a month.[3] Hoopers contract at Queens wasn't renewed, and he was subsequently released in May 2017 after four seasons at Palmerston.[4] Hooper remained in Dumfries and Galloway after signing for Scottish League Two club Annan Athletic on 14 June 2017.[5]
