Delouise Hoeter (born 6 March 1994) is a Tongan professional rugby league footballer who currently plays for the Norths Devils of the Queensland Cup competition. He plays at wing, fullback and centre and previously played for the Wests Tigers in the National Rugby League, and Townsville Blackhawks in the Queensland Cup.
Born in Tonga, Hoeter moved to Auckland, New Zealand at age 5 and played his junior rugby league for the Marist Saints. He later moved to Queensland, Australia to attend Keebra Park State High School before being signed by the Wests Tigers.
In 2013 and 2014, Hoeter played for the Wests Tigers' NYC team. In September 2013, he was named in the Junior Kiwis train-on squad, but missed the game due to injury. On 12 February 2014, he re-signed with the Tigers on a 2-year contract. Coach Mick Potter said, "Delouise is a very good outside back who's understanding and anticipation of what is going to happen is excellent and I'm looking forward to seeing him progress." In September 2014, Hoeter was again named in the Junior Kiwis train-on squad, but again missed the game due to injury.
In 2015, Hoeter graduated on to the Tigers' New South Wales Cup team. In Round 4 of the 2015 NRL season, he made his NRL debut for the Tigers against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. On 17 October, he played for Tonga against the Cook Islands in their 2017 Rugby League World Cup qualifier match. In December, he was released from the final year of his Tigers contract.
