The 29-year old former Southport stopper, who joined the Bucks last month, has been chosen to wear the armband by manager Liam Watson.

Long-serving Telford goalkeeper Ryan Young, meanwhile, has been named as the club's vice captain for the new campaign.

Watson said: "They have a very important role to play in the dressing room, but also at the club by interacting with supporters and representing the club out in Telford."
