On his appointment Stewart said: “I’m very pleased to be given this opportunity and look forward to getting back to football and, hopefully, seeing fans back at Princess Royal Park.
“The stop-start nature of this season has been difficult for everyone involved with Deveronvale but with the roll out of Covid-19 vaccines I hope that we can get back to near normality soon.”
Deveronvale chairman Jim Mair added: “We’ve had a number of constructive discussions with Craig and have discussed the club’s objectives and expectations with him.
“We believe his wealth of experience as a SHFL player and in management make him the right appointment for Deveronvale and wish him well in his new position.”
Stewart will be assisted by Kevin Stewart as first-team coach and James Blanchard as goalkeeping coach with an assistant manager to be appointed in due course.
