The 2024 season is Glamorgan County Cricket Club's 137th year in existence and their 103rd as a first-class cricket county. They are competing in the Second Division of the County Championship, as well as Group B of the One-Day Cup and the South Group of the T20 Blast. They are scheduled to play two 50-over matches at The Gnoll in Neath for the third year in a row, while also not returning to Penrhyn Avenue in Rhos-on-Sea for the fifth year in a row.[1]

It was the team's first season with Grant Bradburn as their head coach and Sam Northeast as red-ball captain,[2][3] following the departures of red-ball coach Matthew Maynard and captain David Lloyd.[4][5] White-ball coach Mark Alleyne also left, allowing Bradburn to unite the roles held by Maynard and Alleyne, while Kiran Carlson was appointed as white-ball captain, taking T20 duties in addition to the 50-over role he already held. Australian Marnus Labuschagne and South African Colin Ingram returned as the team's overseas players, along with Pakistani Mir Hamza, who would be available until 27 May.[6]
