2024 Orlando Pride season

Two new expansion franchises, Bay FC and Utah Royals, joined the NWSL in 2024. Orlando traded for full protection from both teams in the 2024 NWSL Expansion Draft and therefore had no players selected.^[2][3]

After four-and-a-half seasons under the Exploria sponsorship name, Orlando City's home stadium was rebranded as Inter&Co Stadium ahead of the 2024 season.^[4]

Ahead of the 2024 season it was announced that after four seasons as a league cup competition, the NWSL Challenge Cup would become a super cup between the previous season's NWSL Shield (regular season) and NWSL Championship (post season) winners. As a result, Orlando Pride did not participate in the 2024 Challenge Cup.^[5] It made way for the Summer Cup, a similar style tournament including Liga MX Femenil teams.

On March 7, the team signed Zambian forward Barbra Banda from Shanghai Shengli for a transfer fee reported to be $740,000; a new club record transfer fee and the second-highest in women's soccer history.^[6]

The Pride won the NWSL Shield, the team's first trophy, clinching it with a win over Washington Spirit on October 6. They did so while setting several NWSL records, notably going undefeated through the first 23 regular season games until a loss to the Portland Thorns FC on October 11.^[1] The streak stretched back to the previous season, lasting 24 NWSL regular seasons games and 27 games in all competitions in total. Goalkeeper Anna Moorhouse also set a new NWSL record for shutouts in a single season with 13, beating Adrianna Franch's 11 shutouts set with Portland Thorns in 2017.^[7]

Orlando ended a five-year playoff drought and earned the first postseason victory in club history on November 8 with a 4–1 victory over Chicago Red Stars. The team reached the NWSL Championship game for the first time. It also marked the first time an NWSL Shield winner had reached the Championship since North Carolina Courage in 2019 and similarly the first time since 2019 that the #1 and #2 seeds met in the Championship. On November 23, Orlando became the second club after North Carolina to win the double, defeating Washington 1–0 in the final.

At the end of the season, Emily Sams, Marta and Barbra Banda were named NWSL Best XI first team. Anna Moorhouse and Kerry Abello were named NWSL Best XI second team.^[8] Seb Hines was named Coach of the Year.^[9]
