TRUSTEES’ REPORT TO THE CHARITY COMMISSIONERS
2024-2025
FheKSA has ‘continucdto provide, ‘on ‘a voluntary ‘basis, a variety “of football activities for your, people attending schools in the Administrative County of Kent, the Medway Unitary Authority, and the London Boroughs of Bexley and Bromley, in pursuance of its object: the mental, moral and physical development ofschoolchildren through the medium of[Association][ Football.]
These activities have included:
-
¢ Inter-school knock-out competitions from Under 12 to Under 19 (Boys)
-
¢ The long-established KSFA Under 19 League, now in its 45 season, with over 90 teams in the 16-19 age group playing weekly fixtures
-
¢ Inter-school knock-out competitions for Girls (Under 13, Under 14, Under 16 and Under 18)
-
Inter-district competitions from Under 11 to Under 15 (Boys) — some of which date back to 1921
-
¢ County Representative Teams from Under 11 to Under 18 (Boys)
-
& County Renresentative Teams for Girls (Under 14 and LInder 16)
-
¢ Tours abroad for some of the county representative teams
Participation levels in the inter-school competitions continued to rise and were almost back to preCovid levels. This boosted income. There were good income streams from cup finals, where online AonCIAOmd way Eien meeemtehe teeta rat lh dower, lem eee ere ee ON a I ee a ee II ONL de LUTE VULILIEIUCU tu Uo vely SUCCESSLUL, WUSL pPleossules, ldl Bely {Me LEOULE VL LALIALIUIL, AU LY LLG cost of the inter-county programme.
The KSFA’s financial situation remains good, despite grant income having dropped significantly. A strong balance sheet enables the KSFA to withstand potential reduction in income.
Reserves Poiicy: The Association hoids reserves to cover setbacks in funding or cash fiow and to reduce the impact of risks from the external financial environment. These proved to be beneficial during the disruptions caused by Covid-10, and during the period of high inflation in 2023-24. Reserves are necessary to ensure the Association can meet its obligations if intended funding sources diminish. In considering the appropriate level of reserves the Trustees considered areas of possible financial risk. These cquatc to at lcast 18 months of operating costs, and thercfore the intention of the Trustees is to have Reserves of at least this amount.
