  ## Club career
  
  After spells at Tufnell Park and South Weald, Hughes joined West Ham United in 1911 and made his debut against rivals Millwall in a 2–1 victory on 4 November 1911. Hughes played over 100 times in all competitions for West Ham before requesting manager Syd King transfer list him after remarking on Ted Hufton's ability during a trial, King obliged and sold Hughes to Bolton Wanderers for £350.
  
  Hughes' career was interrupted due to the outbreak of World War I, with Hughes playing for Chelsea in that period. Hughes joined Charlton Athletic in the summer of 1921 in time for the club's debut Football League campaign where he made 19 appearances. After his departure from Charlton, Hughes spent the 1922–1923 season at Clapton Orient before retiring from professional football.
