Moorside Cricket & Bowling Club Company No. 08464614 Trustees' Report (Including Directors’ Report) For The Year Ended 31 October 2021
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing document
Moorside Cricket and Bowling Club was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 27th March 2013. Subsequently, it was registered as a charity with the Charity Commission on 30th July 2013. On 31st October 2021, it had approximately 500 members.
Appointment of trustees
As set out in the company articles, there can be a minimum of seven and a maximum of fourteen trustees. At this, the eighth annual general meeting, one third of the directors retire from office or, if their number is not a multiple of three, the number nearest to one-third, must retire from office. As some directors were appointed during the year, they will automatically retire and seek reappointment by the members. Members are invited to nominate trustees prior to the AGM. Generally, trustees have been involved with the charity for some time and are aware of their rights and obligations as trustees and they are made aware of the plans and financial position of the charity upon appointment.
Organisation
The board of trustees aims to meet at least twelve times per year, or more as business requires; all major decisions, both financial and non-financial, are discussed at these meetings before being put into effect. Due to the restrictions associated with the Covid-19 pandemic, the frequency of meetings was reduced. However, trustees remained in communication through email.
Subsidiaries
The Charity has a wholly owned subsidiary: Moorside C&BC Community Interest Company (CIC) which was incorporated on 28[th] October 2013. Moorside C&BC CIC was established to carry out commercial trading activities chiefly: the operation of the social facilities of the Club; its bar; and the hosting and organisation of entertainment for the Club’s members and the local community. Any surpluses generated by the subsidiary are covenanted, through gift-aid, to the charity.
Risk management
The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and this review is regularly updated at trustees' meetings. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks, both financial and non-financial.
Objects and activities
The Objects of the Charity are specifically restricted to the following:
-
i. the promotion, encouragement and organisation of all-age community participation in healthy recreation and sporting activity for the benefit of the inhabitants of the village of Moorside, Oldham; the Metropolitan District of Oldham; and the surrounding areas;
-
ii. the advancement of the education of children and young people undergoing and not undergoing fulltime education through participation in active sport;
-
iii. the relief of old age through the promotion of physical activity for elderly people; and iv. the provision and maintenance of public recreational facilities for the playing of crown green bowls, cricket and other sports in the interests of social welfare.
This provision may be amended, only, by special resolution and then only with the prior, written consent of the Charity Commission.

Achievements and performance
Fortunately, the restrictions imposed by HM Government and National Sport Governing Bodies because of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, did not impact greatly on the competitive sporting activity associated with the Club.
Crown Green Bowls
During the 2021 season, the Club entered teams in the following leagues and the final league positions were as follows:
| Team | Division | Position |
|---|---|---|
| Chadderton League A | 2 | 8/11 |
| Chadderton League B | 4 | 4/10 |
| Failsworth | 2 | 5/9 |
| Oldham Veterans | 1 | 11/11 |
| Saddleworth A | 2 | 1/10 |
| Saddleworth B | 3 | 8/8 |
| Tameside Ladies | 1 | 7/9 |
Both the Oldham Ladies and Oldham Ladies’ Over 60’s leagues did not hold official fixtures, with “friendly matches” being played.
Cricket
A full set of senior men’s league cricket fixtures was played during the 2021 season. Having been promoted to the GMCL Premier League in 2019, the 1[st] XI finished joint sixth out of twelve teams on equal points with two other teams.
The T20 side “Moorside Mavericks” came top of their mini-league winning 5 of their six matches. They progressed to the semi-final and finals day held at Clifton CC. Unfortunately, they lost their semi-final match.
Unfortunately, the 2[nd] XI finished tenth in their league and will be relegated to Division 4 in 2022. At times, the 2[nd] XI struggled to field 11 “Moorsiders” and had to rely on “loan” players from other Clubs. Despite assurances from these players, on at least two occasions, playing ineligible players resulted in points being forfeited. It is hoped that with a strengthened 1[st] XI in 2022, the 2[nd] XI will be promoted back to Division 3.
The Club was pleased to acknowledge sponsorship from local businesses. All three senior men’s teams benefited from kit sponsorship again in 2021.
The women’s cricket section played a number of tournaments and festivals.
Junior Cricket continued to expand with 79 junior members signing on for the season. As well as playing in the Under 9 and Under 11 leagues, regular practice sessions were held, culminating in a 3-day cricket camp held in August.
Capital Renewals
The development of the Club’s facilities continued. The major project was the transformation of club frontage into a new decking area.

REPORT (Cont.
Communications
The Club’s website, using the Pitchero cricket website programme, continues to provide news and information including club news, social events, match reports and photographs. The Club’s Facebook page continues to be very successful as a means of communication with over 1,200 “likes” reached during the summer.
Charitable Objects
The Trustees are mindful of the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and are confident that the work of the charity fulfils the public benefit test. The charity’s trustees continue to be especially grateful to its volunteers who work tirelessly for it.
Reserves policy
The trustees have examined the charity's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. It had established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be approximately equal to six months' expenditure having regard also to any contingencies that might arise and any possible downturn in income. Despite a very difficult year, financially, the trustees have been able to sustain this position.
Trustees’ responsibilities
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare accounts that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its income and expenditure for the financial year. In doing so, the trustees are required: to select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP; make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and prepare the accounts on the going-concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Moorside Cricket & Bowling Club Independent Examiner’s Report For The Year Ended 31 October 2021
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended which are set out on pages 6 - 11.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (who are also the directors of the company 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 for this year 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
-
the accounts do not accord with such records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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
-
•the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
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
