Club Captaincy for 2022/23 confirmed

Keith Watson will continue to lead Ross County FC as Club Captain for season 2022/23.

Our longest serving senior player, Keith has been with us since 2018 and now enters his fifth campaign here having celebrated his 100^th appearance in February 2022. A key member of our 2018/19 Scottish Championship & Challenge Cup winning squad, Keith has been a vital figure for the football club in his time to date. We are delighted Keith will remain as the Club Captain for a second season.

Jack Baldwin has also taken up the role of Team Captain for the upcoming 2022/23 cinch Premiership campaign. Since joining Malky Mackay’s squad last summer, Jack has been a great leader in the group and will support Keith in leading the team going forward. In his first season with County, Jack was an instrumental part of the squad that accomplished only a third ever top six finish in the Premiership for the club.

On his second season as club Captain, Keith said, “It’s an honour to have a second season as Club Captain. We have a good group of players in the dressing room which includes a strong core of experienced older heads, and we all work together to drive the club forward.”

“Aside from Dundee United this is the longest I have spent at any club. I love it at Ross County and in the Highlands, so for me it’s quite special to both enjoy being here over the last 4 years and to now also Captain the club.”

After being confirmed as Team Captain, Jack Baldwin said, “Since joining last year I have loved every minute of my time at Ross County, and I am delighted to take on the role of Team Captain supporting Keith.”

“We have a fantastic dressing room; Keith is a great Captain and leader so to be supporting him for the 2022/23 season means a lot to me. I am really honoured to take on this role and, like every player, I just want to continue making the fans proud to follow Ross County.”
