Wrexham made club history last week, punching its first-ever ticket to next year's Champions League qualifiers after winning the top-flight Welsh league's Adran Premier title.
The March 29th 4-1 win over Cardiff clinched Wrexham's first league title — as well as its 2026/27 European debut. However, the moment was quickly overshadowed by sexist comments directed at the team.
The club quickly addressed online comments following the triumph.
"We are aware of sexist and misogynistic comments shared online following the match," Wrexham said in a statement. "Let us be clear: Such views have no place in football, in our club, or in society."
The team subsequently emphasized the significance of its achievement, making clear the spotlight should remain on the players and their success.
"We will not allow this behaviour to overshadow a great moment for women's football in Wales. Our focus remains firmly on celebrating our players and continuing to grow the game."
The statement also outlined consequences for the commenters' behavior. Wrexham said it will ban any supporters it identifies as responsible from all club outlets.
The Genero Adran Leagues later addressed the “sexist and misogynistic” remarks, pointing back to the match itself.
"Sunday's game at the Cae Ras was a magnificent and inspiring occasion for women’s football in Wales," the league said.
"This year's two best teams competing in an exciting contest, in front of the season's highest attendance. That should be the leading headline."
Now, the focus shifts back to the pitch. Wrexham will make its Champions League debut later this year, marking the title-winning club's next big step.
