Garreth Carvell is a retired English professional rugby league footballer. A Great Britain international representative forward, he played his entire professional club career in England, featuring in Super League for Warrington Wolves, Leeds Rhinos, Gateshead Thunder, Hull F.C. and Castleford Tigers.
Carvelll made his Super League debut for Leeds as a 16-year-old. After a successful loan spell at the newly formed Gateshead Thunder in 1999, he signed for Hull F.C. in 2000 where he developed into one of the top props in the country, helping Hull to win the 2005 Challenge Cup. Hull reached the 2006 Super League Grand final to be contested against St. Helens and Carvell played as a prop forward in his side's 4-26 loss.
In 2000, Carvell made his international début when he represented Wales in the 2000 Rugby League World Cup. Garreth represented Great Britain in 2006 in the Tri Nations competition held in Australia. He also helped Hull reach the 2008 Challenge Cup Final. After signing a deal that would keep Carvell at the KC Stadium for the next three years he made a controversial U-turn and made the move to Warrington after a fee was paid.
