Head Coach, Carl Veart applauded Goodwin’s tenacity in front of goal:
“Archie has been outstanding for us this season. To come in and make the impact he has, especially at his age, speaks volumes about his talent and attitude. He works extremely hard, always wants to improve, and has a real hunger to score goals. To win the Golden Boot in his first season with us, and to do it across the whole league, is a phenomenal achievement. He’s got a big future ahead of him.”
