The 2017-18 campaign was a season of stability and defensive resilience for Wrexham as the Dragons secured a solid 10th-place finish in the National League. Leading the charge was clinical forward Chris Holroyd, whose 13 league goals proved vital in a campaign built on a league-high 22 clean sheets and the tactical discipline of manager Dean Keates. It was a year that saw the club spend much of the season in the play-off hunt and remains a significant chapter in their long battle to return to the Football League.
