## Rockets Sport and Educational Foundation Programme Report 1[st] June 2022 – 31[st] May 2023 

Rockets look back at the end of this year on a very successful year, giving many youngsters the opportunity to enjoy participating in sport, improving their physical fitness and learning many important lessons for life. 

The charity has benefited from funding from a number of sources. 

## Earley Charity Funding 

Through the support of the Earley Charity the Foundation has been able to provide weekly basketball sessions at The Weller Community Centre in Amersham Road. This is an area that has a high crime rate and struggles to engage young people and deter them away from anti-social behaviours. The programme not only provides weekly coaching but also provides the centre with a sports coordinator who organises the sessions and helps in the planning of other community engagement events. 

It also allows the club to work in local primary schools to act as a pathway for children to then access the programme at the Centre. 

This year the programme saw 2 teams from the Weller programme take part in the Rockets community Basketball league which has been great for the young players to experience the competitive element of the game in a fun and healthy environment. 

## **Sir** Garfield Weston project 

This funding helped the charity to launch a 6[th] mini basketball hub which caters for boys and girls age 4-12. The new hub opened up a potential 50 more spaces for children to play basketball on a weekly basis once it became safe to run bigger sessions. It also provided the opportunity for one of the club’s apprentice coaches to help at the hub and gain experience. This programme has continued to grow this year as it expanded to take on an under 14 group at the same venue to provide a longer pathway for the

young players. 2 Bulmershe teams also entered the club’s community league which has been a great addition this year. 

## Get Berkshire Active Play Unified 

The play unified project helped the charity to provide coaching to 6 SEND schools to help develop their skills and knowledge of basketball which then culminated in a 3v3 tournament held at Reading University sports park. This was a really great project to engage more young people with additional needs into sport. 

## Get Berkshire Active – Sport Together 

Sport Together was a first of its kind sports programme which involved 8 clubs in the area develop a programme which provided both weekly sessions and one off events for young people with SEND and also an aim of engaging with youth in years 6 and 7 to encourage them to be active and help to reduce anti-social behaviour. The programme also provided funding for the coaches to attend courses including Mental Health Awareness and Trauma in young people. As well as funding the delivery of each sport each club was able to spend time with other clubs looking at their programmes and gaining CPD. A really successful programme which really showed how collaboration can be really powerful in sport. 

## Greenham Common Trust 

The charity was supported by funding from the Greenham Common Trust which helped the charity to provide a new programme in Theale which was a new area for the club. In the first couple of months of the programme the charity had over 40 new players between the ages of 8 and 12 training every week. It also provided the new club with basketballs and hoops to ensure the equipment was suitable for the age groups of the club. 

It also provided funding for the club to provide a weekly session to the school to help engage more students into the sport. 

This programme has now grown to include an under 14 group and SEND group at the school, with 2 teams playing in the club’s community league. This has been one of the biggest successes of this year’s funding by moving to a whole new area and increasing the amount of young people playing basketball. 

## John Sykes Foundation 

We are very grateful for a donation from the John Sykes Foundation towards our work which enabled us to support more young people.

## Other 

The other major part of the charity is the junior club which has gone from strength to strength over the whole club’s 25 year history. The “junior” section where players train and play at the performance and development level now sees 14 teams compete regionally and nationally with just over 200 athletes training at least twice a week and playing games at weekends. 

The club now has age group representation at every age for both male and female participants, with premier level and conference level for boys at Under 14s, 16s, and 18s teams, with the aim of giving girls at Under 14 and Under 16 levels the opportunity to play premier level in future years, where at present the Under 18 girls play. 

There have also been structural changes with a new head of youth basketball being appointed alongside a head of girls’ basketball and head of boys’ basketball. There are plans to enhance this next season with the introduction of a new junior club coaching committee which will see six coaches from different sporting backgrounds come together to ensure the club is offering the very best basketball, environment, and coaching to all its younger members. 

Amongst the circa 250 personnel to include all staff members (coaches, team managers, support staff etc.), a number of players currently represent their national teams, a good number represent their super region and, and even more their region, with some of the coaching staff also representing on these respective stages. The aim is to provide more players with an opportunity to represent further along the pathway as well as within its own club system with about 20 players currently  “training up” with different teams. 

Currently, a new 3-5 year plan is being formulated by the coaching committee which will look to increase the number of participants, teams, and coaches as well as challenge the quality of what is being delivered and we look forward to reporting on that in due course. 

On the financial side, the trustees are satisfied that it continues to be viable, but are reviewing  the charity’s reserves policy. 

The charity is grateful for all those who make its work possible and looks forward to a bright future.

## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Rockets Sport and Educational Foundation** 

I report to the accounts of the company for the year to 31 May 2023, which are set out on the following pages. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are also 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.  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 pf the 2-11 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; and To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** 

2073,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 statement below. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and 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; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
