Colin Joseph Hawkins (born 17 August 1977) is an Irish retired soccer player and the current the manager at Shamrock Rovers B. Hawkins was a central defender for Shamrock Rovers along with a several other clubs in the League of Ireland and cross-channel in England. He has played for his country in Republic of Ireland at youth and U21 levels.

The month of November in 2001 witnessed Hawkins make his return in Ireland in order to join Bohemians and made his debut with Bohemians “Gypsies” against former club St. Pats on 30 November. In 2003, Hawkins received the third league trophy for winners in the same year that Bohemians were awarded their second league title in three years. However, Hawkins wasn’t a very popular player at Dalymount Park due to consistent bad performance.

In January 2007 Hawkins made a free transfer back to Championship side Coventry City, the team where he signed his first professional contract. This time however Hawkins went on to make several very impressive appearances in his first season back, helping Coventry City stay clear of relegation. A troublesome Achilles injury restricted Hawkins to just a solitary start in his second season (against Notts County in the League Cup) and with the arrival of new manager Chris Coleman he was deemed surplus to requirements and his contract was not renewed.

On 28 May 2008, it was revealed that Hawkins had become first signing by manager Micky Adams in his second spell as manager at League One Brighton, agreeing a two-year contract. Hawkins and Adams had previously worked together at Coventry. Hawkins was hugely popular with the Brighton faithful and assumed cult status at the club. Following the completion of his two-year contract, Hawkins was released by Brighton much to the dismay of many supporters.

Hawkins was appointed to the team by Ian Snodin, but within several weeks Snodin was dismissed and was replaced with Steve Wignall. Wignall did not consider Hawkins the same way Snodin was, so at first Hawkins had to content with a few substitute appearances. Hawkins made it into the starting line-up in November 2000 , and was there until the end of 2000/01. Hawkins was well established as a player throughout the first half of the 2001/02 season , but was eventually forced out of the club after Doncaster was forced to trim the size of their team due to financial constraints.

Despite being a target for numerous British clubs, Hawkins joined Irish top- flight team St Patrick’s Athletic, where Hawkins joined forces alongside fellow Bronze gold medallists at the FIFA World Youth Championships, Trevor Molloy and Thomas Morgan. Hawkins quickly earned the opportunity to start alongside Packie Lynch. Their solid base played a role in helping St Pats win the championship during his first season. Hawkins was a part of the Champions League preliminary round against Celtic in 1998, which ended in the 0-0 draw that took place on Celtic Park. He was awarded an award called the Players’ Young Player of the Year Award. In November 1998, he was presented with an FAI national League player of the year award. St Pats also won the league during Hawkins 2nd season. Hawkins was a member of Ireland several times at the under 21 levels. Hawkins was injured during the first half of the 1999/2000 season , and after his return, he was placed in a midfield position. He did not feel at ease there and his performance dropped dramatically. At the close of the season, it was confirmed that he would not remain with St Pats, but join English Football Conference side Doncaster Rovers.

At the end of the 2004 season, Bohemians Dublin rivals Shelbourne signed 3 out-of-contract players from Bohemians; Hawkins, Glen Crowe, and Bobby Ryan.
