League Struggles and the Reality Check chiefs
finished the league campaign in ninth place, missing the top eight for the second consecutive year after a 0‑0 draw with Polokwane City in the final match.

An ongoing defensive crisis, worsened by injuries to key centre-backs, further undermined their league prospects.
