Club Career

In 2013 Larroyer was signed by Hull KR from Catalan Dragons on a season long loan deal.[2]After an impressive season at Hull KR, making 22 appearances for the Robins and scoring seven tries the club extended Larroyer's loan deal for another year for season 2015. [3]

In September 2015, the French International committed his future to Hull Kingston Rovers by signing a 3 year deal taking his service with the Robins into 2018.[4]

Playing Highlights

At the Magic Weekend in 2013 against Hull FC, he got his first competitive taste of a Hull derby, Larroyer produced an impressive performance against the Black and Whites as Hull KR secured the Easter bragging rights with a 21-20 victory at the KC Lightstream Stadium.

Proving a constant threat down his side’s right edge, the Frenchman bagged his side’s first try of the game midway through the first half when running a superb line through the opposition defence and had a further score ruled out after half-time despite outpacing the cover from half way.

Although denied a double, Larroyer’s work rate was impressive as he ran for close to 100 metres, racked up 35 tackles, got away three offloads and bust three tackles.[5]http://m.hullkr.co.uk/news/2014-the-best-of-kevin-larroyer

In 2015 Larroyer scored a try in the Challenge Cup semi-final at Headingley against Warrington, the game which took Hull KR to Wembley for the Challenge Cup Final that year. Larroyer furthered his side’s lead after the break when he was almost tackled in front of the Warrington line, but managed to stay up long enough to stretch over the whitewash.[6] http://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/warrington-vs-hull-k-r/44101
