The triumph marks the team’s fourth league title and adds another trophy to their growing cabinet.
Despite competing in the amateur tiers, every win counts – and this one certainly did.
The Road to Glory: Tough but Triumphant
The season was anything but easy. With 5 losses and 1 draw, the Fireblades’ path to the top was filled with obstacles. But the team’s resilience and hunger for victory saw them through, culminating in the high-stakes final where they delivered a commanding performance to clinch the title.
Promotion & New Challenges Ahead
With this title, Racas Fireblades have secured promotion to District Division 1, where for the first time they will face off against human managers, not just AI-controlled teams. It’s a significant step up in competitiveness, promising fresh challenges and new rivalries.
Star of the Season: Otilia Dimcea
The standout player of the season was undoubtedly Otilia Dimcea, who racked up an impressive 28 wins. Her consistency and skill were instrumental in the team’s title run, and she will be a key asset as the team enters a more competitive league.
Building for the Future – Literally
To prepare for the next chapter, the Fireblades are thinking big – literally. The club has begun construction of a much larger training hall, investing €40,000 in the expansion project. Despite the hefty investment, the club ends the season in solid financial shape with €34,000 still in the bank.
Looking Ahead: Growth, Investment, and Learning
Club management has laid out ambitious plans for the near future:
-
Expand the hall to accommodate the growing needs of the team.
