Nicholas "Nicky" Hunt (born September 3, 1983 in Westhoughton, near Bolton, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom) is an English footballer who plays right back for Bolton Wanderers. He wears the number 2 shirt for the club.
A Bolton supporter since his schooldays[1], Hunt achieved his dream of becoming a professional footballer when he made his debut for his favourite club as a substitute for Colin Hendry in the First Division match against Sheffield United on the final day of the 2000-01 season, shortly before Bolton won promotion to Premiership.
He had to wait some time for further first team opportunities, only playing in two FA Cup ties (against Sunderland in January 2003) before making his breakthrough at the start of the 2003-04 season when he became a key part of the defence and a first-team regular for Bolton. His Premiership début came in the 4-0 defeat at Manchester United on August 16, 2003. He has now made over ninety appearances for the club, scoring one goal.
Hunt won nine England U21 caps, the first coming in February 2004 against the Netherlands.
