REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

for the year ended 31 May 2023

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 May 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

A list of current trustees is provided on page 1.

New trustees are selected by invitation of the existing trustees, to fill any vacancy in the management of the trust, so as to recruit an individual possessing the specific training and experience required for that role.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The principal activity continues to be the provision of junior football and will remain so in the future. During the year the club has continued work on its ground and facilities, to enable the club to provide higher quality football training and match facilities. Work will continue to fund and develop this facility, which has been granted material funding from The Football Foundation.

Public benefit

The Trustees have reviewed their statutory duties and remain satisfied that the Club operates in the public benefit through the resources it offers junior footballers.

Volunteers

The charity is dependent on volunteers for the running of the junior football teams and would like to thank them all, as without them the charity would not function.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The 2022/2023 season saw the club's membership grow to 642 players across 35 teams. The current membership is the largest in club history, due to an increase in the number of girl's teams U8 to U14 and a full complement of boys teams, from U5 to U18.

The number of volunteers has also grown this season to 134, with increases in both the number of coaches and committee members.

Plans to take on the lease of additional pitches at Jubilee Park are on-going and we look forward to them coming on line for the 2023/2024 season.

We remain committed to the long standing ambition to build a clubhouse at Pannal Community Park, and will maintain a cash reserve to fund this development. We look forward to hearing about the completion of the planning process so that the project can start in 2024.

Fundraising activities

The club's key fundraising activities are:

Kit Sponsorship - all kits are sponsored through connections and relationships with local businesses. Donations - the club receives donations from individuals in the form of membership and match fees and from local organisations for sponsorship.

Club merchandise - the club sells branded and unbranded merchandise through a third party web site from which the club receives a commission.

Investment performance

The trustees consider the level of bank interest received acceptable given the need to maintain accessibility to deposit funds.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 May 2023

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Investment policy and objectives

It was agreed that the Investment Policy is for the Club's funds to be retained at the bank to be available for the Club's activities. The trustees are satisfied with the return on the bank accounts as they feel it is important to have instant access to funds to facilitate the continuing development of the football ground.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Reserves policy

The Accounts were considered, discussed and approved. The Club remains in a healthy position. The Trustees believe that with the development of the ground, the Club has achieved its aim of securing a base for the next 25-30 years. As such the Club's Reserves Policy will be to direct fundraising activities exclusively for the preparation of pitches and the construction of a club house.

On an ongoing basis, however, the Trustees are pleased to note that the income received from all sources allows the Club to continue to run 35 teams for boys and girls throughout the age groups.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document

The charity is controlled by its Articles of Association dated 4 March 2013, and amended on the 19 March 2013, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

History

Pannal Sports Junior Football Club was founded in 1966 and has been providing football services to children continuously for over 50 years. The club operated within local league guidelines for many years. In 2002 the club formally adopted the Football Association club management procedures and achieved Chartered Club Status in 2007 and has maintained this status ever since.

Pannal Sports JFC, registered with the Charity Commission in 2013, is the successor charity to the former Pannal Sports JFC Limited, first registered in 2004 and formally dissolved in 2013 on legal advice to improve the governance of the club.

The day to day management of the club is executed by a committee made up of the formal roles of Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer and representatives of players' parents and coaches who perform key roles including child protection and fund raising. All of the trustees are active members of the committee.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the financial risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. In the opinion of the trustees, the existing financial controls are adequate for the scope and extent of the transactions involved. These controls include multiple cheque signatories, formal controls on all expenditure, limiting acceptance of cash payments and monthly reviews of the accounts.

The trustees identified the need to include additional appropriate financial controls to support the investment in the new ground. Part of these additional measures has been to employ the services of Baty Casson Long, who have more experience with charities, to prepare and examine the accounts as well as provide additional financial management advisory services.

Child protection, safety and welfare is a key risk management activity. The club has a qualified Child Protection Officer who ensures that all club officials who come into contact with the children have been checked and cleared by the Disclosure and Barring Service performed by the Football Association. In a addition to this all coaches undertake training provided by the Football Association and have, as a minimum, passed Level 1. Child Welfare training and basic first aid are included in Level 1 training.

During the year the club continued to be subject to the need to provide additional protection as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The additional facilities resulting from the earlier appointment of a dedicated Covid-19 officer have enabled the club to safeguard both volunteers and participating children to the satisfaction of the trustees.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PANNAL SPORTS JFC

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Pannal Sports JFC ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 May 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
