Season tickets for Reading FC Women’s 2022/23 campaign are now on sale for fans.
Kelly Chambers’ team will return to action in the Women’s Super League for their second season since moving permanently to the Select Car Leasing Stadium.
Although it was an underwhelming end to the season for Reading, it was a season that was full of highs.
Playing every single competitive game at the SCL for the first time, highlights included beating Chelsea for the first time in the club’s history as Deanne Rose’s goal proved to be decisive in a 1-0 victory.
That momentous win would be just one of two Chelsea defeats in their entire league campaign as they went on to win the Women’s Super League title for a third consecutive season under Emma Hayes.
An incredible run of seven wins in eight matches saw the Royals rise up the table in the middle of the season and put themselves in the running for a top four finish.
However, injuries and lack of squad depth cost the Royals of having a chance of competing with the teams above them as they went winless in their final nine league matches.
They eventually finished in 8th position in the WSL on 25 points with seven wins, four draws and 11 defeats from 22 games.
Reading netted 21 times in 22 games, while they let in 40 goals with gave them a goal difference of -19.
Reading manager Chambers said: “What I’m excited about next season is there’s a big foundation of this squad that stay for next season.
“And we’ve laid that foundation now and it’s for us, it’s kind of what’s next.
“We need to look towards next season and go right, this is us, how do we progress moving forward? That’s what excites me.
“We haven’t got big turnovers and we’ve got a solid squad already, and if we can add a few to that we could be a little bit stronger.”
