Glamorgan accounts 2022

£39,000 loss compared to £380,000 profit the year before

https://glamorgancricket.com/documents/2022-gccc-financial-statements-19195.pdf

Test Matches must bring in around £1m p/a

Points of interest

Over 36,000 tickets were sold for our four home games ni 2022, of which 18% were sold to
children, 4% sold to diverse communities, 29% to females, and 55% sold toUnder 45's. Importantly,
64% of tickets were sold to buyers who had not visited Sophia Gardens previously. This
demonstrates a new audience being attracted to cricket and potentially supporting other forms of
the game in the future.

New season just around the corner. Mark Alleyne has been announced as Glamorgan's white ball head coach. Fantastic news! Out major problem in t20s has been the ridiculously conservative gameplan. A new coach with a better understanding of the game is a huge bonus

Interesting appointment. Very good one day player and captain for Gloucestershire in his day. Still a Glos favourite.

Re: GLAMMY

On the face of it, Alleyne is an excellent appointment - he was an integral part of Gloucestershire’s domination of the one day game in the 90s.

Re: GLAMMY

Looks like the draft for the coming season’s Hundred is to be held tomorrow. Welsh Fire have a new coach in Mike Hussey and only five of last season’s squad is still with the club (it seems most chose to leave,rather than they were sacked).

They look a lot stronger this year, even a glamorgan player selected

Here’s the squad, plenty of pace (including probably the fastest bowler in the women’s game), would like to see more spinning options, but it does look a stronger squad - just hope Bairstow is available this time.

Anyone wanting to watch live coverage of Glamorgan’s pre season game at Taunton can do so here - they’re between innings at the moment after Glamorgan declared at 283-5.

Re: GLAMMY

Surprised that they were able to make a start at 3.30 today at Taunton. Somerset have just declared at 231-7 - there’s a not very good stream of the game on Somerset’s You Tube site.

Re: GLAMMY

First game of the season today. Was hoping Hogan would u turn on retirement. He has, but to sign for Kent. Gutted.

Looks like need to wait for next week for Labuschagne and Neser to join the squad.

Hopefully we ger off to a good start against Gloucester, although we always seem to struggle against them.

Re: GLAMMY

Glamorgan’s defeat by Cardiff University this week, albeit in a declaration game, has me feeling less optimistic thanI was about this season- play due to restart at 1.10.
