Since 2019, Smith has played for Tennent's Premiership side Watsonians.[2]

In 2011, she joined Hillhead Jordanhill RFC. In 2017, the team won the Sarah Beaney Cup.[3][4] Smith was named BT Women's Premier League Player of the Season for her performances during the tournament.[5] She scored the winning try of the final against Murrayfield Wanderers, also winning player of the match for the final.[6]

The team went on to win the Sarah Beaney Cup Final against Watsonians in 2018, with Smith securing player of the match following multiple tries.[7][8]

International career

Hannah made her full international debut for Scotland against France in the 2013 Six Nations and has played internationally for Scotland regularly since then.[9]

She was selected for the Scotland Women 7s squad ahead of the 2017 Rugby Europe Women's Sevens Trophy. During the series, Scotland defeated Ireland 26-14 and Smith finished top of the DHL Performance Tracker for the tournament.[10]

In the 2020 Women's Six Nations Championship, she played in Scotland's opening match against Ireland but was forced to withdraw for the following matches due to a shoulder injury.[11]

She was part of the squad for the 2021 Women's Six Nations Championship, and scored Scotland's try in the defeat to England; its first try against England in three years.[12] However, she did not play in all the subsequent matches in order to continue her training for the GB Sevens team for the postponed 2020 Tokyo Olympics .[13]

In an interview with Sky Sports in April 2021, she spoke of the GB team's disappointment at the postponement of the championship, when interviewed about their disrupted training regime.[14]

Smith announced her retirement from international rugby after the delayed 2021 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.[15][16]

Personal life

Smith is a veterinary surgeon.[17] With the support of Scottish Rugby, she took a sabbatical to focus on rugby in the run-up to the Tokyo Olympic Games: “I was struggling to balance my work and rugby – it was becoming too much – and Scottish Rugby luckily were happy to help me out and get me off work because I was starting to struggle training at a high level."[18]

Smith began playing rugby at the age of 17 at Stirling County – the same club as her brother Matt, a former Glasgow Warriors and Scotland U20 player.[19]
