COVID-19 guidelines
Following recent changes to COVID-19 guidelines in England, we would like to reiterate that we continue to follow the existing Welsh Government guidance at the Racecourse Ground.
At present, you do not need a COVID-19 pass to enter matches at the Racecourse Ground.
We do, however, urge all supporters to continue to remain vigilant and respectful of your fellow fans and consider them when making decisions on match-day.
Masks are compulsory in indoor areas, including the Wrexham AFC Club Shop, unless you are exempt. Masks are optional in outdoor areas, and we ask all supporters to respect the decisions made by their fellow fans.
Where possible, when moving around the stadium, we ask supporters to be mindful of social distancing and to try to maintain it wherever they can.
Please also maintain good hand hygiene, use hand sanitisers where provided and avoid touching your face, handles or railings wherever possible.
You are responsible for deciding whether or not you should attend any match and, prior to attending each match, carry out a personal risk assessment based on your own age, health and susceptibility to infection and clinical vulnerability and of those in your household or support bubble (based on government guidelines).
You must not attend this game if you have been asked to self-isolate, and you should not attend if you or anyone in your household has developed any COVID-19 symptoms.
Please avoid unnecessary movement away from your seat, and wherever possible wait until gangways are clear to avoid queuing and crowded concourses as much as you can.
At this time of year especially, we are keen to minimise disruption, and ask all supporters to play their part for each other.
Supporter conduct
After a very small number of incidents at the Racecourse Ground this season, we urge all supporters to consider their conduct when watching Wrexham AFC, and how this impacts your fellow supporters’ safety and match-day experience.
As above, you must not enter the playing surface at any time. Furthermore, anybody found throwing objects or using pyrotechnics will be dealt with as strictly as possible. Pyrotechnics and smoke bombs, in particular, have no place in a football stadium.
Incidents at some of our matches this season has resulted in the Club being charged and hit with financial penalties.

We are aware that this refers only to a very small number of isolated incidents, but we urge all supporters to work together to help us to stamp this out.
Should you encounter any trouble or unacceptable behaviour, you can report this to your nearest steward or, confidentially, by emailing info@wrexhamafc.co.uk.
