Etheridge arrange dwelling within the Borders city shortly after becoming a member of the membership in 2017 and with neither of final yr’s incumbents – Danyon Hume and Drew Kemp – returning, was approached by Berwick group boss Stewart Dickson.
“We all know Jye as a bubbly, energetic and reliable presence within the pits and I had no hesitation in providing him the captaincy,” Dickson stated.
