Hazley moved to Stoke City in 2004 from Glenavon. He joined Stafford Rangers in August 2007, for an initial one-month loan spell, and made his debut in the 3–1 defeat against Kidderminster Harriers.

He made his debut for Northern Ireland Under-21 team on 14 November 2006 in a 2–1 defeat against Germany. [2] Hazley made his one and only Stoke appearance in a match against Coventry City on 24 May 2006, he came on as a substitute in the 56th minute. [3] Hazley was offered a four-month extension to his contract in May 2007, to prove his fitness following injury. [4]

On 15 August 2007 Hazley was sent on a one-month loan to Stafford Rangers, [5] where he made six appearances. He returned to Stoke on 12 September 2007 after he was sent off during Stafford's 3–0 defeat to Stevenage the previous day. [6] In early January 2008, following his release from Stoke City, Hazley signed for Stafford Rangers, but signed for Scottish First Division side Airdrie United in July 2008 after a successful trial with the club. [7]

Hazley returned to Northern Ireland to play for Newry City in 2010 and then signed for Crusaders in 2011, before making the move to Dungannon Swifts in May 2012.
