Youth Section- Chairperson's Report
It Is with great pride and enthusiasm that I present this yearfs report for the Youth Section of
Woodnesborou8h Football Club. The past season has been nothing short of exceptional. marked by
outstanding performances. remarkable growth, ènd a deepening sense of teamwork across all age
groups.
Team Performance and Achievements
This year, we proudly fielded slx youth teams, each of whlch demonstrated fantastic commltment.
development, and sportsmanship throughout the season.
Our Under 145 had a brllliant campaign, finishin8 2nd in Dlvision 2, showcaslng thelr resllSence and
tactlcal maturity.
. The Under 12$ also Impressed. securlng 3rd place In Dlvlslon I, a hS8hly ¢ompetitlve league that tested
their skills and teamwork.
A special mention must 80 to our Under 95, who went undefeated all season and finished with an
astOn15hing +100 goal dlfferen¢e- a testament to their attacking flalr and solid defence.
These achlevements reflect the hèrd work of our players, the dedication of our coaches, and the
urbwavering 5UPPOrt from famllles and volunteers.
The Youth Presentation Day this year was extremely well attended and ran very smoothly. It always
helps when the weather Is great. Sales at the burger van and club bar were brilllant (the burger van ran
out of food) and feedback on the day has been very posltlve. A big thanks to Barry Plerce for organisin8
the trophies again and to the bar staff and volunteer5 on the dav.
Our coachin8 team has contlnued to dellver hlgh-quallty sessions, focusSng not only on technlcal skills
but also on teamwork, disclpllne, and enloyment of the game.
Looklng Ahead
It is with regret that unfortunately Jack Trevelllon and hls as51stant Phll Tomllnson wlll be stepping awav
from runnin8 one of the Under IOS for this coming season. Due to the fatt that there are now not
enough players, the team wlll probably not be able to continue.
In closin8.1 would Ilke to extend my heartfelt thanks to all coaches. volunteers, parents, and player5 for
making thls such a memorable and successful year. Your passlon and dedlcation are the foundatlon of
our Youth Section, and l am excited for what lies ahead.
I would also like to e5peclally thank 8ev Latham, our Youth 5ecretaryi Youth Flxtures Secretary, Child
Welfare Officer and everything else in between.

Hello everyone.
Another busy year for the club with lots of communications and interactions. On the whole I
think these interactions have been positive and allowed us to continue to build on old
relationships a5 well as develop new ones. I would like to thank everyone who's work alongside
me this year, especially Bev in her role of Junior Secretary. I would also like to thank Sandra,
Calvin & Joe in particular for their support, also Gary who can't escape me.
The Canterbury and Dover Lea8ues have modernised their systems and processes this year
which made things challenging initially but hopefully make things easier in the long term. The
FA is movin8 from the Whole Game System to their new "Clubs" portal so a new learning curve
there too.
I'm very proud of how everyone work5 together to support each other in developing the club
and its people.

Report for Woodne5borough AGM 2025
Walklng Football
League
Once again, we have had a successful season with teams from the 5tr5 and 605 reaching the
Kent finals by winnlng or being runners up in the East divisions. The 50.5 were narrowly
beaten in the semi final and the 605 losin8, again narrowly, int the final.
Next Season
There are big changes this coming season.
l. Several of the 50,5 players are, or will be In the near future, 60. For this reason there
will be only one 50's team thls year but that some of the old 505 players will now be
60,5 Reds.
2. There will be East and West over 65's Leagues thls year, meaning that we will be
buying extra kits, first aid kits etc to cover the four teams. We will have 60's Red5 and
Bees and 65 Reds and Bees.
3. There wlll be ten teams in the 60s division and 6 In the 65's. So each 60s team will
have 18 games and the 65's will have 10. As each 60,5 team will have 9 home games
and each 65, team wlll have 5 home game51 foresee us havin8 to double up on some
evenings and have two fixtures per evening.
4. Some of the rules are chan8in8 but the committee have not yet met wlth the
referees so we are not sure yet what exactly all of the changes will be.
WFA National Cup
Both 50.5 and 65's teams reached the area finals of the WFA National Cup but were
unsucce55ful and wlll not be takin8 any further part.
Paul Booth IMNDI Tournament
Despite having reduced numbers this year the tournament was again very successful ralslng
over £2000 for the Motor Neurone Disease Charlty.
We were also Involved in the raising of funds to but the two new benched in Paul's memory
Thanks
I'd like to take this opportunlty to thank the Committee and especially Anne and Gary for all
of the help that you give us.

Social report..
Our social events have continued to Benerate valuable income for the club, as well as
making good use of our facilities to build on our links within the club and the wider
communlty.
The monthly blngo evenln8s are very popular and well-attended. We did have to cancel I
due to bad weather, but plan to fit In an extra date in September.
Our quizzes are also very popular, and we have a regular group of team5 looking forward to
our next qulz in October.
Due to steadlly declining numbers and rlsln8 Costs, this year we decided to hold the annual
Senlor Presentatlon here at the club. This proved to be a great success, partlcularly as we
could keep ticket costs to just £10. This wa5 only posslble due to the 8roups of volunteers
who dld all the caterln8 and a lot of hard work, both before and on the nlght.
The Junlor commlttee yet again staged an excellent presentation event, followed by an 80,5
disco. This was a ma55ive feat of organlsation - my congratulatlons 80 to all involved.
On September 16th we wlll be havln8 an event to offlcially mark the openlng of the 3G pitch
and clubhouse extension. All club members are welcome, and we wlll also be invlting our
sponsors and all who have been involved with these two major club projects.
I would Ilke to thank everyone who has been involved in all our social events over the past
year- we literally couldn't do It wlthout you I
