15 years in the making… and starting at 6.15pm on Tuesday May 2nd a victory parade will leave the Racecourse car park for a tour of Wrexham. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The tour is to celebrate in the success of both the men’s and women’s teams. The men’s team secured promotion with a win over Boreham Wood, and the women’s team secured promotion to the Adran Premier earlier this month. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Crowds are encouraged to spread themselves out along the parade route to ensure a good view of the busses and players. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Below is a map where we have added some street names, and corrected some labels from the council published map: ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
