Soccer fans all over the world are proverbially familiar with the story of Wrexham. Just a few years prior, Wrexham AFC was just a small Welsh club struggling in the fifth division. However, in 2020, the ownership of Wrexham changed hands as Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took over the club and started its journey of growth and popularity.
Accompanied by the hard work of both the owners and the players of the team, this season finally saw them break their 15-year deadlock of being stuck in the National League. The Red Dragons finally won the league title and earned a promotion to the fourth division.
The moment the team sealed their promotion victory, the celebrations began and haven’t seemed to have stopped yet. It’s been quite a journey for the Welsh club and with the recent arrival of the players at Las Vegas, they have taken the celebrations of their historic title victory a notch higher.

However, one face that is missing from these celebrations is Wrexham coach Phil Parkinson. Parkinson, instead of joining on with his players, decided to snub the Vegas trip. Through these celebrations, it’s clear that this is one title win, the players and acolytes of Wrexham will never forget.

It truly has been a nail-biting season, enhanced by the intense title race with Notts County in the National League.
