HARRIS IS STARS SKIPPER

KING’S Lynn have named Chris Harris as their team captain ahead of the new ROWE Motor Oil Premiership season.

GB legend Harris is going into his second year with the Stars and he takes over the role from Nicolai Klindt as the Norfolk side chase league honours.

Manager Rob Lyon said: “Chris has always been a good team man for whichever club he’s ridden for.
“He’s an infectious character who gets behind the boys, and he’s also a good ‘right hand man’ for me to be able to communicate with during a meeting.

“We have two young English boys in Cooper (Rushen) and Jody (Scott) at the bottom end of the team, and I know Chris will support and encourage them as well as he can.

“Nicolai was a good captain for us and I’m sure Chris will prove to be a good successor. He’s the natural choice.”
