Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

The year we were able to run two training sessions per week for 43 weeks for children ages 7 to 15 years of age for two hours per session, reaching over 80 children. 

Due to COVID-19 this year was stop start. As a committee we followed the FA’s Guidance on the COVID restrictions through this time and adapted our sessions to online coaching to keep the young people fit and active. 

On the return of the playing of football we changed our risk assessment to comply with the Government guidelines around COVID-19, which made it difficult for some of our parents and young people. 

As a result many young people did not want to fully return to playing sports.
