Structure, Governance and Management

Hackney Rugby Football Club Limited (HRFC) is a charitable company limited by guarantee, which was incorporated on 28 May 2009. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, adopted on 28 May 2009 and changed at the Annual General Meeting on 30 April 2014.

The Board of Trustees controls and manages the affairs of the charity including setting the strategic direction of the company. Trustees are given a short induction when they join HRFC, which involves interviews with the Chair and a number of the existing Trustees.

The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for risk management. The Board can confirm that the major risks to which HRFC is exposed have been reviewed and procedures established to manage the ri sks .

Major risks include:

Injury to those playing rugby
Failure to comply with regulations
Unavailability of playing grounds and training facilities

Principal Activities and Objectives

HRFC is a charity with the principal activity of providing coaching in the Hackney , Haringey and I slington areas at its home ground – Spring Hill , Hackney, E5 9BL to girls and boys of all age groups between Under 6 and Under 18 and 5 adult teams – 3 men’s and 2 ladies team.

Hackne Ru b Football Club Limited y g y

HRFC's objectives are:

to promote community participation in healthy recreation by providing opportunity and facilities for playing Rugby Union Football
the provision of facilities for recreation in the interests of social welfare
the advancement of education, particularly rugby coaching
such other exclusively charitable purposes as the Trustees shall from time to time determine.

Achievements and Performance Review of the Year

The Seniors have had a trying season especially with the Men's side suffering with a lot of injuries at the beginning of the season. On the bright side this has allowed us to reinvigorate the senior side's spirit. We have launched into the off season with a united attitude winning our tag league and 7's festivals. We have kicked off our preseason with new head coaches for both the Gladies’ and Men's teams and we look forward to the 60th Birthday being an event to remember with both sides showcasing all that they have learnt .

The 2024/25 season was often challenging with some atrocious weather but, despite this, the Juniors continued their impressive growth in numbers, mainly in the youngest age groups, to reach almost 300 active players. Our U6s and U10s had especially high playing numbers throughout the season, thanks to sterling work by Mary and, in the U10s, BJ and his coaching team who were also busy planning an end of season tour to Suresnes. Mary’s amazing work for the club and the Community Outreach Team received long overdue recognition as the Honda Middlesex Volunteer of the Year. Our former club chair AJ was also honoured by Middlesex RFU for his incredible efforts over many years. Despite this success the number of girls playing rugby at the club remains unacceptably low and the focus for next season is to increase girls’ membership and establish girls’ teams at U12 level and above. To achieve this, we have organised a T1 rugby inter-school tournament for year 7 and 8 girls to encourage them to join us and form a T1 girls’ team at the club next season.

A massive thankyou to all our volunteer coaches, volunteer committee members and team managers for their hard work and dedication, their efforts are what makes

Hackney RFC the fun and inspirational club for young people that it is .

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Hackney Rugby Football Club Ltd

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 May 2025, which are set out on the micro entity accounts.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income did not exceed £250,000 and I am therefore qualified to undertake the examination by having the required experience as a book-keeper / accounts manager.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act

• to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act

• to state whether particular matters have come to my attention

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met.
