[edit] Career

Hemmerman came through the youth ranks at Hull City but struggled to ever make a big impact on the first team and was eventually sold to Port Vale in 1977. He only remained at Port Vale for one year before moving to Portsmouth on a free transfer and finished as top scorer for the club in his first year.

Surprisingly dropped by Portsmouth he moved to Cardiff City in 1982 and helped fire the Bluebirds into division two but suffered a severe knee ligament injury near the end of the year against Bristol Rovers. He attempted a comeback from the injury the following year but struggled to regain form and fitness and subsequently retired.

After retiring he trained as a physiotherapist and worked for Cardiff for a while until he set up his own rehabilitation clinic in Newport.^[1]
