Strathspey Thistle have confirmed a new signing and an extended contract for one of their top performers last season.

Forward Alan Kerr (30) has signed on for another season at the Grantown Highland League club while Jack Mackay has arrived through the door at Seafield Park.

The latter is the ex-captain of North Caledonian FA outfit Invergordon FC.

Jags boss Robert MacCormack is delighted with both deals.

He said: “I am delighted Alan has committed to another year with the club.

"Since he has been here he has had some very solid performances.

“He is a very important player on and off the park for us with his experience and we’re looking forward to working with him for another year.”

Mackay was captain and an integral part of the Invergordon side who won a cup double last season.

The addition continues Thistle's recent acquisition of the best talent in the local region's leagues.

MacCormack said: “I’m absolutely delighted to bring Jack to the club.

"He’s a player I know well and he was one of my top targets to bring here.

“He’s had a very successful time in the North Caledonian League and is more than ready to take the step up into the Highland League.

"I am very excited to work with him next season and he will certainly help us achieve what we are looking to do in the future.”
