Yeovil captain Ellie Curson
From Barry McGuigan and Carl Frampton to Tyrone McKenna and Lewis Crocker, the city’s fighters carry a complex history into the ring, writes JOHN WIGHT
YEOVIL’S 2016 title-winning captain Ellie Curson announced today that she would quit to focus on her job as a primary school teacher.
Curson said she wouldn’t be able to stay with Yeovil when the team goes full-time next season in the Women’s Super League, saying that her “work commitments do not allow me to train full-time.”
Curson told the club’s website: “This has probably been the hardest decision I have ever had to make as Yeovil Town has been a huge part of my life for the past few years.”
