Discrimination
• Equal opportunities Volunteers working with children are required to have DBS(CRB) checks when first joining the Charity and at three-year intervals thereafter. Coaches are also required to have Emergency First Aid and to have completed a Child Welfare Workshop (normally completed as part of a level 1 coaching qualification). These two elements must be renewed each three years. Coaches must complete their level 1 coaching qualification within 12 months of involvement with a team. The Club is affiliated to the Sheffield and Hallamshire County Football Association, and teams are registered with the Sheffield and District Junior Football League (boys to age 18) or the Sheffield and Hallamshire Women and Girls League (girls under 11 years of age in this year). We have a relationship with Barnsley Premier Leisure from whom we rent facilities (grass pitches and all-weather training). All trustees gave their time voluntarily and received no remuneration or other benefits. An ongoing risk has been a continuing change in the makeup of the Management Committee, which was a settled situation in this year and hence a diminishing risk. An ongoing key risk is potential unexpected loss of income after incurring affiliation and registration costs. While last year saw a partial recovery from COVID-19 this year has seen a full and in fact increased degree of activity. Fundraising was limited, but operational costs were balanced closely to the income. The reserve remains sufficient to underpin sporting activities if needed.

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
|
| We helped 307 children play organized football from under 7 to under 18 age groups during the year, a slight increase over the previous year. In addition, a varying number of under 6 attend a soccer school and an additional group for 7-11 year olds who want to train and play football but who are not part of a competitive team. The sporting programme was increased compared to the previous year as all restrictions related to COVID-19 effectively ended. |
Financial review
| inancial review | |
|---|---|
| Examination of accounts | B Pashley was re-appointed to independently examine the accounts in accordance with Charity Commission guidance. |
| Brief statement of the charity's policy on reserves | The financial policy is based on trying to balance expenditure against normal contributions, while using fundraising to generate a surplus. This has allowed a reserve to be held that is capable of maintaining operations in the event of an unanticipated loss of income. This reserve was depleted by 20% in 2019/20, due to reduced income during the COVID-19 pandemic. At this stage the reserve has not been replenished but remains sufficient. It is the view of trustees that the charity remains a viable concern. |
| Details of any funds materially in deficit | Not applicable |
Further financial review details
| Youmay chooseto include additional information, where relevant, about: • The charity's principal sources of funds (including any fund raising) • How expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity • Investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted |
|
|---|---|
| Our main source of funds continues to be donations from parents and guardians of football players. In addition, this year fundraising was limited and was supported by 4 small donations. All expenditure is related to the development and operation of the football teams, and the development of coaches and volunteers to support this. The most significant costs continue to be facility hire, followed by equipment/sportswear. |

Future Plans
