TAR

July 2016

In planning our activities for the year, we have kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our Trustee meetings.

The focus of our activities has remained the preparation for the playing of matches organised by the Middlesex County Football Association, the Harrow Youth League, the Harrow Soccer Combination and The Capital Girls League.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

We believe this benefits young people by developing their skills and selfconfidence, alongside their sportsmanship and life skills. We welcome all young people regardless of personal background, faith, gender, all personal circumstances and we believe this philosophy of openness to all enriches everyone through the sharing of skills, aptitudes and life experiences of our young people aged 5 – 18 and volunteers.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

Member volunteers make a great contribution. We are grateful for the many hours volunteers have spent training and encouraging our young people and working with our other team managers and coaches. Without this valuable contribution of time, energy and expertise we would not be able to continue to achieve so much.

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

policy on grantmaking;
policy programme related investment;
contribution made by volunteers.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The club has continued in membership of the Harrow Youth Football League, the Harrow Soccer 7’s Combination, the Capital Girls’ league and the Middlesex County FA. The total number of teams was eight less than the previous season, finishing with a total of 23 registered teams; 11 teams in the Soccer 7’s Combination, 9 in the Harrow youth League and 3 in the Capital Girls’ League. Further details can be found on the Club’s website (www.pitshangerfc.org ).

We will start next season with 20 registered teams (a reduction of 3); 7 teams in the Soccer 7’s Combination, 10 in the Harrow youth League and 3 in the Capital Girls’ League . The Club officers will identify and interview any new team managers required.

The Club maintains strong links with Pitshanger Dynamo FC playing in the adult Middlesex County League (drawing on former Pitshanger FC youth players). The total number of disciplinary cards the players received was 10 (10 yellow, zero red) with a penalty point total of 10. The youngest age group receiving a card was U14 (U13 previous season). Our disciplinary performance has improved consistently over the last 5 seasons; last year was our lowest points total and our first year without any red cards.

The club is continuing its tradition of offering players a wide range of competition/tournament experiences with summer tournament entries, including our own football festival alongside the Pitshanger village ‘Party in Park’. The club is run entirely by volunteers, comprising the club officers, team managers, coaches and other helpers. Also a large number of the players’ parents help regularly, for instance with transport to matches. The club has its own web site (www.pitshangerfc.org ) to present itself to as wide an audience as possible. As an FA Charter Standard Club, we regularly get enquiries from prospective players via the ‘find a club’ process on the Middlesex County FA website. During the year, we ran our annual awards presentation evening in May. Our club Chairman Brian Lochead presented the awards. The club continues its FA Charter Standard status. We believe strongly in training for our team managers, coaches and club officials and other helpers including first aid, child protection and coaching qualifications.

Our charitable status enables the club and its sponsors to maximize the efficiency of our funding and consequently greatly improve the benefits offered by the club. Finally, thanks to all of you who have contributed during the year to the continued development of the Club.
