Yeovil manager Darren Way has signed a new three-year contract with the Sky Bet League 2 club.
Way, 36, took over the Glovers in December 2015 after Paul Sturrock was sacked following a poor run of form which saw Yeovil slip into the relegation zone.
Yeovil have only lost five games since he joined the side and the club are currently 19th in the league table.
Way, whose previous contract was due to expire in the summer, told Yeovil's official website: "I feel very proud and honoured to have signed a new contract to be manager of Yeovil Town.
"Since I was a young lad it has always been my dream to become a professional footballer and follow that up by becoming a football manager.
"It was a massive honour for me to lead this great football club out as captain when we played our first game in the Football League against Rochdale after 108 years in non-league football and now I am leading the club as manager.
"The history this fantastic club has is remarkable and it has been my biggest job not to be scared and keep this club alive.
"When I first took over, I knew the environment I was going to be working in so I had a better understanding of what needed to be done.
"I had to get our players to become winners overnight and listen to simple instructions. I have been honest with them since I took over and at times I have been forceful with them.
"I wanted the players to play with their hearts and heads and play with good quality that will entertain our supporters."
Yeovil chairman John Fry added: "I have worked with Darren as a player and coach for 15 years. He has already committed to being a big part of the Glovers future plans.
"We have found an extraordinary leader and manager in Darren, who has the full backing of everyone at Huish Park, not only to build a squad, but a club, that will achieve and sustain League One status within the next five seasons. He will not let our supporters down."
