BOUNDARY PARK SPORTS ASSOCIATION
TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Board of Trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.
REFERENCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE DETAILS
Reference and administrative details are shown in the schedule of general information on page 2 of the financial statements.
THE TRUSTEES
The trustees who served the charity during the year are shown on Page 2.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a foundation constitution, and is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The financial position of the charity is secure. It performed ahead of budget for 2021/22 and continues to receive support from the S106 commuted sum which is forecast to last for at least the next five years.
The pandemic continued to cause issues with events in the early part of the financial year with many of the outdoor commercial and charity events needing to be cancelled. Things returned to normal from mid-Summer and despite the Omicron wave in December/Janaury causing some disruptions, the trading subsidiary could operate almost unaffected during this period and was not damaged financially.
The charity is able to meet its anticipated commitments.
The Trustees have no concerns about the organisation’s ability to continue as a going concern
PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT
As set out in the objects below, the charity exists to provide facilities for sport at Boundary Park. In addition to the formal sport provided by the associated clubs, members of the public are free to use the park for informal recreation.
Boundary Park has become an outdoor hub for the community with residents using the park as a place to meet as well as to take advantage of the park for physical exercise.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The objects of Boundary Park Sports Association (BPSA) are:
- to promote, sustain and increase, for the benefit of the public, the physical education of young people
3
BOUNDARY PARK SPORTS ASSOCIATION
- to advance, for the benefit of the public, amateur sport for all ages through any sports or games which promote health by involving physical or mental skill or exertion and which are undertaken on an amateur basis.
BPSA aims, though the management of Boundary Park, to support the provision of a variety of facilities for sport, leisure and recreation to enable local people to enjoy sporting activities and to be able to compete if they wish.
BPSA wholly owns Boundary Park (GWP) Limited, a trading subsidiary which holds the lease for the Bar & Social Area part of the pavilion. The directors of this trading company are appointed by the Trustees but the company is run independently to BPSA. Any distributable profits made by the trading subsidiary are gifted to BPSA and used to improve the sporting facilities provided.
During the year the sports provided by the associated clubs are rugby, football, cricket, cycling, tennis and netball.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
2021/22 was still affected by the pandemic but not to the same level as in the previous year and we were open throughout. Many of our larger outdoor events were not allowed to operate due to covid restrictions but it didn’t affect the core business which came back strongly thanks to the procedures the staff put in place which meant customers felt safe.
BPSA continued to invest in the facilities and one of the football training areas was floodlit. Work also started on the accessible seating area which was completed in the Summer of 2022.
BPSA took on the lease of the tennis courts and MUGA in May 2021 and these were immediately in demand from the local residents and used widely by local clubs.
Overall the Trustees are pleased with the performance of the Sports Association, both from a participation level and also financial performance.

BOUNDARY PARK SPORTS ASSOCIATION
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Charity Law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under charity law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION
The nominated independent examiner will be considered by trustees for re-appointment for the ensuing year.

As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
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 company and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and the seeking of 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 expressed as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention which gives I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
-
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.
