Club Trajectory

They finished at the fourth position in the inaugural edition of the tournament. Since then, they have been placed everywhere except the top spot. They had a successful season in 1999/00 when they reached the Final for the first time. But that seemed to be the only silver lining as they once again featured in a Final only 17 years later in the 2017/18 season. The Western Fury is a strong team but somehow manages to stay away from the Championship title with a blip in their performance in a knockout game.
