Born in Cambusnethan, Scotland, Souter immigrated to New Zealand as a teenager in 1919.[1]
Souter was a forward, short but sturdy and fast in the open.[2] He played his club rugby for the Dunedin-based Alhambra and competed for Otago at provincial level, gaining 26 caps. In 1929, Souter won All Blacks selection as a hooker on the tour of Australia, where he made four uncapped appearances.[3]
