Analysis from Nick Webb, BBC Sport Wales cricket commentator.
With two years to prepare for professionalism in 2027, Glamorgan Women have hit their markers in League Two by reaching the final of the One Day Cup after a semi-final appearance in the T20 Blast.
Defeats in both formats have been few and far between for Rachel Priest’s side, with victories as well as losses against principal rivals Middlesex and Yorkshire.
A rather slipshod reverse against Kent is the only serious blot, while a match-up with pro side Lancashire Thunder in the T20 Counties Cup showed what Glamorgan have to aspire to.
The top-order batters have been consistent and the spin attack effective, though more seam bowling resources must be a priority and more depth in the batting will be needed.
Glamorgan have consistently benefitted from using the maximum of three loan players from professional tier one sides in each game, with a dozen in all appearing in the daffodil shirts. They will hope to attract some of those to their ranks once they are able to offer pro contracts from June 2026.
Home crowds passed 1,000 for one of the double-headers in Cardiff but have sometimes been sparse, as Glamorgan aim to make sure that the female game is an integral and ideally successful part of the county’s offering in future.
But credit must go to the current squad, most of whom are combining jobs or studies with their cricket, with an eye on making the game their living in 2027.
