Bellamy has led the Storm since 2003 and is contracted with the club through 2026, but had the option to transition into a coaching director role when he felt the time was right.
As recently as last week, Bellamy claimed to be unsure whether he would coach for a 22nd season but was adamant a call would be made in the week beginning May 15th.
Bellamy told the Storm playing group at a meeting on Monday morning that he would be their coach in 2024, with a formal statement expected to be released by the club later in the day.
The 63-year-old has spoken openly about enjoying the challenge of mentoring an inexperienced playing group after years of premiership dominance.
