Born and raised in Northampton, Lovell began his rugby league journey with the Northampton Demons before progressing through the London Broncos Academy to make his professional debut in 2012. Lovell has been a true leader at the club, an influence that was formally recognised in 2020 when he was named captain, a role he held until 2026.

His contribution to the club will forever be etched in its history as a true servant of the Broncos. Speaking on his retirement, Lovell, said, “I’d like to thank the fans for the wonderful memories over the years, I’m very proud to have captained the club and to have come through the system from the academy. Thanks to JD, Mike and all involved at the club for their support over the years.
