Hannah Manton performs a very important role within the backroom staff at Huish Park, working directly with the Physio both during the week and on match days limbering up the players.

The Masseuse will either help in a player's recovery from injury, or is employed for the more general purpose of body massage after training, or before and after a game.

Hannah is an expert in her field and came to the club with excellent experience.

She qualified in massage at University then went on to complete a Masters degree in health and exercise, before moving on to specialise in sports massage, which she started at the University of Cardiff in 2002.

Training for a year and a half she also gained good experience when she worked with Torquay United.

Upon qualifying, Hannah worked with the Welsh Rugby Union squad prior to the Six Nations Championships in 2003, plus in advance of the Rugby World Cup that year.

Moving on in 2003, she came back to Somerset and joined Yeovil Town as the squad Masseuse, where she has since worked with three managers helping to look after many of the players who have brought the club so much success over the past three or four years.
