KENTISH TOWN YOUTH FOOTBALL TRUST CIO TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2021

Introduction

Kentish Town Football Academy is a community based football initiative, based in and providing services to children and young people in Camden, working through a dedicated charitable vehicle – the Kentish Town Youth Football Trust.

During this period approximately 170 children and young people take advantage of KTFA-supported training sessions based out of Camden’s Cantelowes Gardens, Talacre Sports Centre, Whittington Park and Fleet Schools.

During this period the club has ambitiously extended to support an u18s age group and a men’s team. We have also embarked upon trialling a partnership with Edgware Town FC at U16 level.

Training provision includes formalised training and development for talented children able to commit to membership of the club and attendance at regular weekly training sessions. Nearly 150 children and young people have benefited from this over the last year, attending multiple training sessions every week. Where they show potential, players participate in Football Leagues, Cups and tournaments under a KTFA badge.

As a small, not-for-profit locally based club, there will always be limits to the numbers of children we can support through our work. We therefore focus, in particular, on providing training to those with the most potential, ensuring minimal financial barriers are placed in the way of talented children developing their sporting potential.

By attracting young people from across the borough – children at the club attend some thirty different schools across the Borough, and are drawn from a wide range of backgrounds - the club contributes to building community cohesion across the borough.

The club continued to manage its provision in line with govt policy on lockdowns and social restrictions in relation to the Covid pandemic. This year was a focus on extension of pathways and supporting members financially during the ongoing pandemic.

Background

KTFA was originally set up as an initiative by members of the Camden Council Youth Services team. Initially, the purpose was to find ways to add value to Camden’s sports development programme by providing a focus and purpose to what had been declining participation levels in its football-based outreach programmes.

At the outset, the club was established in loose partnership with Torriano Primary School and drew most of its participants from the local Torriano Estate. Subsequently it was run in partnership with local semi-professional club Kentish Town FC, extending participation to a wider pool of young people across Camden.

Most recently, following the dissolution of Kentish Town FC in early 2015, parents of children at the club formed a Charitable Incorporated Organisation - Kentish Town Youth Football Trust – to take over responsibility for the club, with the aim of generating even more sustainable impact, in particular through increased sponsorship and volunteering, ensuring that a much valued and successful initiative was sustainable into the long term.

In 2019 the club secured FA Chartered Standard and the Camden Active Mark and has stepped away from the Coaching partnership with Camden in favour of directly contracting coaching services on a consultancy basis contributing to its status as a going concern.

Vision and success

The vision for KTFA is to provide the highest quality, accessible football training to talented young footballers in Camden, whilst building community cohesion, encouraging volunteering and growing links with local businesses. For kids with sporting aspirations beyond grassroots level the club is committed to establishing pathways to opportunity.

Participation fees are kept as low as possible to ensure that players are able to succeed on the basis of talent and potential, not ability to pay. As a charity there is an absolute assurance that all the money coming into the club goes to meeting the costs associated with running the club.

Since its formation, the Academy has been successful in helping realise the full potential of Camden’s young footballing talent, with significant numbers of players going on trial with professional clubs and a number signing up on permanent terms - combined with significant on field success in the form of league and cup wins at a number of age groups.

Our aim is to combine social impact, grassroots sporting participation, financial sustainability and sporting success.

A success based on membership, partnership and community

Kentish Town Football Academy developed successfully because of the close partnership between Camden Sports Development and the club. The club retains preferential rates on some training venues from partnership with Camden. It has also realised the benefit of supporting the re-development of Fleet School with preferential rates on training sessions at that venue and has even extended into neighbouring boroughs as required.

During 2020/21 KTYFT

Enabling KTFA to:

Maintain its stable financial base while not increasing monthly membership - however the base float of £12k has been breached and will be a driver for a price increase.

Ambitions for 2021 and beyond

Re-structure the subscription model and increase the fee in preparation for the start of the 22/23 season with the two-fold goal of aligning with the increasing operational costs and reducing the level of management required from volunteers.

The club will keep endeavouring to secure a kit sponsor as a priority regardless of how difficult this might be..

Succession planning and diversity planning across the management team will grow in importance as the existing trustees and operations team approach the end of their child’s involvement with the club.

Review and revise the pathways in response to learnings from the pilot and in line with upstream flow of age groups.

Players and families have expressed a wish for longer training sessions. The club will explore this when defining the training schedule for the next season.

Goalkeeping training sessions have not re-started since the pandemic and the club want to re-start this and publicise their availability.

The club will more actively engage in outreach programmes to estates and schools in the borough thus maximising the social impact of the club.

Re-invigorate the links with pro clubs for trials and practice games.
