Wilf Jones was a left-arm spin bowler who played for Glamorgan between 1929 and 1933.

After some impressive performances for Pontardawe CC during the early years of the South Wales and Monmouthshire League he joined Glamorgan’s junior staff as Frank Ryan’s understudy. Wilf made his first-class debut against the 1929 Springboks at Pontypridd, and two years later took 6/93 against the New Zealanders at the Arms Park.

Wilf subsequently got an extended run in the Glamorgan side when Frank Ryan was released at the end of 1931. However, he lost form and, with wafer-thin finances and Emrys Davies emerging as a useful all-rounder, Glamorgan had to also release Wilf as an economy measure at the end of 1933.
