Who is Sean Hankin?
Sean Hankin is an English semi-professional footballer, currently playing as a defender for Badshot Lea F.C. after moving there from A.F.C. Totton.
Sean Hankin began his career as an apprentice at Crystal Palace, turning professional in June 1999. He made his league debut on 7 March 2000, coming on as a substitute for the injured Simon Rodger in the goalless draw with Bolton Wanderers at Selhurst Park. He agreed a new contract with Crystal Palace in June 2001, but with a first-team place still out of his reach, joined Torquay United on trial at the start of October 2001, playing for the reserves away to Taunton Town on 2 October.
Later that month he joined Torquay on loan, as a replacement for fellow Palace player David Woozley who was returning to Selhurst Park at the end of his loan spell. Hankin made his Torquay debut in the Football League Trophy against Bristol City and was harshly sent off on his league debut for Torquay in the 2-0 defeat away to Mansfield Town on the 23rd of October. A permanent deal was agreed with Crystal Palace, the following month, Hankin valued at £20,000. Although initially a regular in the Torquay side, Hankin lost his place in the team due to injury and was given only a short-term contract and left in October 2003 to join non-league Margate.
