Over three match days spread across 3 months, the Strollers worked tirelessly to field a squad in each, even though the team were hit with multiple injuries and lack of availability of key players for most of this campaign.
The final league table shows our lads finishing in 5th spot, narrowly pipped at the last by Boston, after a close fought game on the last match day.
The league honours went deservedly to Sleaford Academicals who remained unbeaten.
