Duke played club hockey for Hillhead in the Scottish Hockey National Leagues system but played for Edinburgh University Hockey Club while at university. Duke made his Scotland debut in 2012 against Spain in Barcelona, won a bronze medal with Scotland at the 2015 Men's EuroHockey Championship II in Prague and earned his 50th cap in 2016.[2]

After university, he played a season in Germany before returning to Hillhead HC and became the club captain.[3] He represented Scotland at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast, Australia, in the men's tournament[4] and played for Scotland at the 2019 Men's EuroHockey Championship.[5]

He left Hillhead for a second time to sign for Western Wildcats for the 2021/22 season.[6][7] In 2022 he went to his second Commonwealth Games after being selected to represent Scotland at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England, in the men's tournament.[1][8]

In June 2023 he announced his retirement from international hockey after his 102nd cap against Switzerland.[9]
