Wiss Town's 11th season in the league was a challenging journey, marked by a steep learning curve and a clear need for defensive solidity. Finishing 12th in their division, the team managed only 4 wins from 22 matches, with a total of 18 points. The season's fun fact highlights their struggles: a goal difference of -27, reflecting defensive vulnerabilities that hampered their ability to compete consistently.

This season was characterized by a collective effort to build a more resilient squad, even if the results didn't immediately translate into higher standings. The team showed resilience in some matches, but overall, defensive lapses and goal-scoring droughts kept them at the lower end of the table.
