The Ledger
Goodber’s Season 22 was a challenging yet instructive campaign. The team demonstrated resilience but faced difficulties in maintaining consistency and defensive stability. With room for growth in both attack and defense, the club will look to build on this experience to climb the table in future seasons. Strengths include their fighting spirit in matches, but to progress, a focus on tightening defensive organization and capitalizing on scoring opportunities will be essential.
