Paul Teather (born 26 December 1977 in Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England) is an English retired footballer who played in defence and midfield.
Teather started his footballing career after taking a place at Lilleshall school of sporting excellence aged 14.
While there, he played for the England national team at under-15 level, receiving his first cap for representing his country in an international game.
In 1997–98, he was loaned out to Division Two side AFC Bournemouth, but his spell at Dean Court was curtailed by a triple cheekbone fracture.
Following his retirement from playing, Teather graduated from the University of Salford with a physiotherapy degree[1] and now works as physiotherapist.
