Leon Duane Hapgood (born August 7, 1979) is an English professional footballer. He currently plays for Western League side Bideford. He has also represented England Schoolboys.

Hapgood was born in Torquay and began his career as an apprentice with Torquay United, scoring on his league debut in September 1997 while still an apprentice, coming on as a 38th minute substitute for the injured Steve McCall in the 3-0 win at Plainmoor against Brighton & Hove Albion.

He turned professional in May 1998, but played only a peripheral role in Wes Saunders’ side the following season. In June 1999 he was offered a three-month contract by Torquay, but was released in August, almost immediately teaming up with his former manager Kevin Hodges on trial at Plymouth Argyle. He signed non-contract terms with the Pilgrims, but was allowed to join former Torquay player Sean Joyce’s Bideford on loan in November 1999. On February 7 2000 he joined Conference side Yeovil Town after failing to break into the Plymouth first team.

In June 2000 he moved to Taunton Town, managed by former Torquay player Russell Musker, playing as a substitute in Taunton's 2-1 FA Vase Final win over Berkhamsted Town on May 6 2001 at Villa Park.

He subsequently moved to Merthyr Tydfil in December 2001 [ [http://www.nonleaguedaily.com/news/index.php?newsmode=FULL&nid=2057 New signings boost Martyrs] ] . At the of that season he moved to the United States to work as a coach, returning to the UK to play for Taunton in October 2002 [ [http://www.nonleaguedaily.com/news/index.php?newsmode=FULL&nid=6816 Hapgood settles in quickly] ] . He moved to Bideford in February 2003, initially on loan as he recovered from injury, and left Bideford to join Clevedon Town in June 2004 [ [http://www.nonleaguedaily.com/news/index.php?newsmode=FULL&nid=18694 Bideford raid Torrie for two more] ] .

On January 10 2007 he rejoined Torquay United on an initial one-month contract [ [http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/macclesfield_town/6249485.stm Murray joins Silkmen from Torquay] ] , which was later extended for a second month. However, he was released by Torquay on March 11 2007 when his contract expired. After starting the 2007-08 season with Liskeard Athletic, he subsequently re-joined Bideford.
