Financial review
Financial Results
The charitable company has changed its financial year end to 30 June to fall in to line with county FAs across the country.
As a result, it is difficult to draw meaningful comparisons to previous years - as these accounts only cover a six month period.
Overall, there was a negative movement in funds of £28,922 and cash and bank balances decreased by £19,615.
Principal Funding Sources
The Association’s reliance on its principal source of income, The FA, rose from 51.31% in the year to 31 December 2023 to 57.29% in the six months to 30 June 2024, although as other income dropped due to the shortening of the accounting period, this was expected.
Reserves & Management
The Trustee responsible for Finance’s policy is to maintain reserves at a discretionary minimum level of 100 days’ operating costs including restricted expenditure. The reserves level was monitored regularly by The Trustee responsible for Finance with cash managed internally on a daily basis. This ensured that sufficient resources were available to meet the ever changing objectives and needs of the Association in the face of a sudden and significant drop in grant funding.
Risk Management
Risk management is a continuous process embedded throughout the governance structure. While the Trustees focus on the major strategic risks facing the Association, day to day management of operational risk is the responsibility of the County Secretary and staff. Each project is subject to a risk assessment at the start and review is maintained throughout its duration. Learning from the risk management of individual projects is shared throughout the Trustees and the Association. HFA maintains a business continuity plan which is regularly reviewed and updated. Led by the Trustees, the plan is designed to ensure HFA can continue to operate if its systems or facilities, or those of its strategic service delivery partners, are out of action for any significant length of time due to an unforeseen event. Updates on the risks are reported to the Trustees Board meetings by the County Secretary, for the Trustees to review and manage changes accordingly. The Covid 19 pandemic was an example of an unforeseen and highly significant impact to the Association. The governance structures, put in place by the Trustees, enabled the Association to react swiftly to the ever changing situation. Cost saving measures were implemented swiftly with the aim to sustain as much as possible the operational capabilities of the Association. Budgeting and frequent Forecasting enabled the Trustees to react to the financial plight faced and helped The Trustees to take the necessary actions to preserve the Association.

Financial review (continued)
Going concern
The governance structures, referred to above, allowed the Association to ensure that it was able to continue to operate throughout the pandemic. The forecasting has also shown that the Association is in a position to continue for at least the coming 12 months with the continued support of The FA.
Directors' responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The Companies Act 2006 requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial period, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the directors are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies of the Companies Act 2006.
This report was approved by the board of trustees on

HUNTINGDONSHIRE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION LIMITED INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HUNTINGDONSHIRE FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION LIMITED FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
I report on the accounts of the company for the period ended 30 June 2024, which are set out on pages 7 to 19.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of The Association of Accounting Technicians.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
• follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act
- state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s report
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 next statement.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
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" 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 (FRS 102).
I 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.

1.3 Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis
The charitable company reported a cash outflow of £19,617 for the period. The trustees agree an annual budget and are confident that the charity is a going concern.
1.4 Income
All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities in the period in which they are receivable, except for monies which are for specific periods crossing over the period end.
Income represents affiliation fees, course fees, fines, Football Association grants and other income receivable in the period.
1.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
1.6 Fund accounting
Funds held by the charity are:
Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees.

1 Accounting policies (continued)
1.7 Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
All resources expended are accounted for gross, and in the period in which they are incurred. VAT is not recoverable by the charity and as such is included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the accountancy fees and costs linked to the strategic
1.8 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Depreciation is provided at rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life as follows:
Land and buildings 5% straight line Furniture and fittings 4% and 20% straight line Office equipment 20% straight line Computer equipment 20% straight line
1.9 Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any discounts due.
1.10 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short term maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
1.11 Leasing and hire purchase commitments
Leases are classified as finance leases when they transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased assets to the company. Other leases that do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased assets to the company are classified as operating leases.
The company has entered into some hire purchase agreements for certain machinery assets that include the option to purchase the items at the end of the lease term for a nominal amount, which is expected to be much lower than their fair value at that date. The hire purchase agreements have been classified as finance leases as it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit and loss account on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
1.12 Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.

Provisions are recognised at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
1.14 Taxation
The charitable company is now exempt from paying corporation tax on its investment income and from the annual requirement to file a corporation tax return.
1.15 Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Post-employment defined contribution plans
The company makes contributions for staff to a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund, or paid to employees' personal pension plans. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the company to the fund or personal plans and are recognised as an expense as they are incurred.
