The 2017-18 season saw Glasgow Warriors compete in the competitions: the Guinness Pro14 and the European Champions Cup.
With the addition of two South African sides, the Pro12 expanded to become the Pro14 for season 2017-18.
The format of the league changed to accommodate the extra teams. It was split into two conferences and matches played in a conference system with the addition of 2 derby fixtures. The play-off system also changed with the winners of the conferences hosting a Semi-Final and each conference runners up and 3rd place teams playing off in Quarter-Final fixtures.
For the Pro14's inaugural season, Glasgow Warriors were placed in a conference with the Ospreys, Cardiff Blues, Munster, Connacht, Zebre and Cheetahs.
Dave Rennie was installed as new Head Coach in August 2017. One of his first decisions was to scrap the co-captaincy enjoyed by Jonny Gray and Henry Pyrgos. Ryan Wilson was picked as Warriors captain for the season.
Scottish Rugby Academy players who have been assigned to a Professional club are Stage 3 players. These players are assigned to Glasgow Warriors for the season 2017-18. Dan York was added to the Glasgow Stage 3 academy squad in the Scottish Rugby Academy's second intake in the 2017-18 season.
