Hall was born at Worksop, Nottinghamshire. His cricket career began in the 1895 when Derbyshire entered the County Championship. Hall scored one run in two innings in his debut match which Derbyshire won against Yorkshire and he made little impression apart from taking two catches, in his second game against Nottinghamshire, although the team went on to finish highly in the year's County Championship. Hall appeared only once during the 1896 season when he took a wicket against Warwickshire and played his last match in the 1897 season in an innings defeat to Surrey. He was a right-handed batsman who scored 3 runs in 7 innings and a right-arm medium-fast bowler who took 3 wickets at an average of 37.33.

Hall died at Worksop at the age of 51.[1]
