WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
-
To remain focused on promoting participation in healthy recreation, particularly through amateur rugby.
-
To provide and assist in providing facilities for sport, coaching, and community engagement initiatives, ensuring the club is a centre for sport and social welfare in Wymondham, South Norfolk, and surrounding areas
-
To provide facilities for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions of life.
PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Trustees continue to allign the Trust's activities with the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. This ensures that our work promotes health, well-being, and community cohesion through rugby and other associated activities.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Financial Management
Financial Review
The 2024/25 year was a successful one for Wymondham Rugby Club ("the Club") both on the pitch and commercially. In May 2025 total membership stood at 1,956 of which playing members are 778, which excluded those only playing touch rugby.
The Community Trust continues to operate the rugby and charitable activities, whilst the commercial operations are undertaken by Wymondham RFC Trading Ltd (Company number 11525763). The latter donates through gift aid any profits to fund the activities of the Charitable Trust.
Consolidated Position
For the 2024/25 season, the Trust and its trading subsidiary, Wymondham RFC Trading Ltd generated a consolidated income of £967,091 (2023/24: £769,678) with consolidated expenditure of £938,945 (2023/24: £824,680), leading to a consolidated net surplus of £28,146 (2023/24: deficit of £55,002). The main reason for the increase in profitability has been the 24% improvement in Other Trading Income, driven by better bar sales, refreshments and pre-match lunch income. The three main club events have all improved profitability year on year. The Club has also increased its membership numbers.
Cash at bank and in hand was £117,805 (2023/24: £85,217) at the year end with a further £174,316 (2023/24: £150,000) invested in fixed rate savings accounts protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
Net current assets have improved from £224,385 to £287,964 generally representing the free reserves within the Club which will allow it to make the investments referred to below without impacting the ongoing financial sustainability of the Club.
Trading Subsidiary (Wymondham RFC Trading Ltd)
Wymondham RFC Trading Ltd (company number 11525763), the Club's fully owned trading subsidiary, generated a net profit of £194,116 (2023/24: £134,212) which was transferred as a gift aid donation to the Trust. The increasing profits generated by the trading subsidiary's activities are vital in funding the rugby and community activities of the Club, and this continues to operate effectively under the control of the General Manager.

WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
Cash Position and Reserves
The Trust's reserves policy was revised by the Board of Trustees in November 2024 setting a level of £235,000 as the minimum reserve level to cover operational risks, wind-up obligations and to set aside a sum to cover future repairs and maintenance obligations.
In June 2025 the trustees agreed a new reserve policy for 2025/26 in consideration of CC19 which allows the Club to segregate funds for the ongoing running of the charity, future strategic plans and contigency fund.
In 2024/25 the trustees elected to designate funds which were equal to the value of the net book value of the fixed assets. This enables the Trustees to segregate the "free" reserves from the underlying assets held by the charity.
At the year end the Club had unrestricted general funds of £281,352, a designated fixed asset reserve of £4,212,483 and a Wasps designated fund of £4,308.
Investments and Strategic Planning
After a successful financial year and having reviewed longer term forecasts, the Club has made the following investments in the 2024/25 year and commitments for the future:
-
Payment of match fees for 1st XV Senior Men's team.
-
Provsion of match day shirts for all age groups and dedicated coaches' jackets.
-
Creation of a classroom space equipped with TVs and whiteboards.
-
Investment in renewable energy.
-
Maintenance of our first-class facilties: slab replacements and brick weave paths to pitches.
-
Freezing of membership fees for 2025/26.
Financial management
The Club produces annual budgets and periodic forecasts, which are reviewed at meetings of the Board of Trustees throughout the year. There are clear control protocols in place around payments, capital purchases and cash management to ensure the financial assets of the Club remain well managed.

Risk Management
Overarching approach
The Trustees are committed to identifying, managing, and mitigating risks to safeguard the Club’s objectives and financial health. The risk management process includes regular reviews of risks across all operational areas, including strategic, financial, legal, and reputational risks. The Trustees regularly assess and adjust controls to mitigate these risks, ensuring compliance with all legal and regulatory obligations.

• Strategic Risks - Addressing long-term risks that could affect the Trust's ability to achieve its objectives.
- Core Risks - Managing risks related to the Club's day-to-day operations.
• Risk Register - Maintaining an up-to-date register of all identified risks, their potential impact, and actions taken to mitigate them.
Fundamental Risks
The key risks currently facing the Trust include:
1 Income Fluctuations:

5.Governance Risks:
• Changes in composition of the Board of Trustees could disrupt the strategic direction and operational efficiency of the Club.
6.Reputational Risk:
-

Data risks
The Club continues to prioritise data security and GDPR compliance. By utilising Google Workspace for email hosting and digital file management, we ensure centralised and secure data access for authorised personnel. Enhanced measures, such as two-factor authentication (2FA) and regular reviews of data protection policies, further safeguard member and volunteer information. The Club remains compliant with GDPR, with ongoing training for trustees and staff to maintain awareness of best practices in data management.
Playing Report
Senior Rugby - Men
It has been another exciting and memorable season for the Senior Men’s section who have been led by their Head Coach Aaron Beaumont. The 1XV, in their first season after promotion, secured a commendable 5th place finish. The 2XV, also in a newly promoted league, finished 9th in a tightly packed table where just 10 points separated them from 5th.
During the year there was the successful revival of the 3XV, who finished 5th in their league. This will support the transition for Colts stepping into senior rugby – seven players made the transition during 2024/25.
Going into the 2025/26 season the Club has announced its intention to pay a match fee for the 1st XV Senior Men’s team to retain and attract the best talent and in line with the ambitions set out in the Club’s strategy.
Senior Rugby - Women
The Wasps welcomed Alex Bailey as its new Head Coach who has implemented a multi-year strategy aimed at creating a solid skills and knowledge platform in the first year before rolling out a new game plan. With registered numbers and attendance at training increasing significantly during the year the Wasps won the Norfolk Cup against West Norfolk in May.
A highlight of the year was the sell-out pre-match lunch on International Women’s Day with guest speaker Rocky Clark.
Youth Rugby Report
The Youth section has had another successful year with membership growing in all sections. Our Colts won the Eastern Counties Plate and the under 14s, 15s, 16 boys and 18 girls all represented the club in the Norfolk Finals with success for three out of the four teams.
The Girls section has grown significantly during 2024/25 and with increasing numbers they are more able to move away from cluster teams and solely represent Wymondham.
The Boys section has seen an increase in numbers of 10% with several players representing both Norfolk and Eastern Counties. We are also seeing a healthy progression from Colts into senior rugby supported by the establishment of a regular 3rd XV.

Mini's Section Report
The Mini’s Section has continued to grow rapidly, now boasting over 250 registered children and 50 dedicated parent volunteers. The season was packed with training, fixtures, and events, including Wymondham’s own Mini’s Festival, which hosted ten clubs over two days, and the Tigers Cup, which the U10s will host again next year.
Other highlights of the year include the participation of the Mini’s section in curtain raiser events, notably the allgirls event for International Women’s Day and a tour to Saracens, for 135 attendees, reflects the strength of engagement across the group.
Volunteering
The success of the Club is underpinned by the hard work of volunteers. From organising events like the Minis Festival to supporting operational needs, volunteers remain a crucial part of the Club’s culture.
We will continue to push forward our “volunteer led” ethos at WRFC and view it as an essential part of who we are and how we will continue to be successful.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' annual report and the consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
•select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
•observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102);
•make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
•state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed;
•prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inapproriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the trust deed. 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Wymondham Community Rugby Trust (the ‘parent charity’) and its subsidiary (the 'group') for the year ended 30 June 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Balance Sheet, the Parent Balance Sheet, the Consolidated Statement of Cashflows, the Parent Statement of Cashflows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and parent charity's affairs as at 30 June 2025,
-
and of the group's incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
-
Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the trustees’ report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees'
-
report or;
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the parent charity's financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all of the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of the trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement [set out on page 9], the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and parent charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST
Auditors responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the industry in which it operates and considered the risk of the company not complying with the applicable laws and regulations, including fraud, in particular those that could have a material impact on the financial statements. This included those regulations directly related to the financial statements, including financial reporting and tax legislation.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, we ensured that we considered the nature of the industry and sector, made appropriate enquiries of management as well as identified any laws and regulations that are applicable to the company. Management did not make the engagement team aware of any instances of non-compliance with material laws and regulations or instances of fraud throughout the year.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
We have reviewed all board minutes to ensure no instances of non-compliance with laws & regulations or
-
instances of fraud have remained undisclosed to us as auditors;
-
We have developed an understanding of what laws & regulations the charity is required to comply with and
-
performed enquries with management to ensure no breaches of such laws & regulations have occurred;
-
We have performed a review of a sample of journals posted by management during the year to ensure
-
there has been no evidence of management override or fraudulent postings during the year;
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) General information
The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England and Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Wymondham RFC, Barnard Fields, Bray Drive, Wymondham, Norfolk, NR18 0GQ.
(b) Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (issued October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The charity constitutes a public benefit as defined by FRS 102.
(c) True and fair override
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a "true and fair" view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a "true and fair" view. This departure has involved following Accounts and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 rather than Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
(d) Basis of preparation
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
(e) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that there are no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered all levels of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be to continue as a going concern.
Page 19
WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(f) Basis of consolidation
The group financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the charity and its wholly owned subsidiary Wymondham RFC Trading Ltd (company number 11525763) for the year ended 30 June 2025 and comparatives for the year ended 30 June 2024.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenditure are eliminated on consolidation. The consolidation has been completed on a line by line basis.
Transactions between group entities which have been eliminated on consolidation are not disclosed within the financial statements.
(g) Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds
These are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Designated unrestricted funds are those which the Trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose (see Note 20).
Restricted funds
These are available for use subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or through terms of an appeal.
(h) Income
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
• income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be reliably measured.
-
investment income is included when receivable.
-
income from charitable activities is accounted for when earned.
• income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Page 20
WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(i) Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered under the VAT partial exemption rules, and is classified under the headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable
-
trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
• expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity
-
nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
(j) Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Group's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimations and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are not based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis, revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period which the estimate is revised if the revisions affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Aside from the depreciation applied to the Groups's fixed assets (as highlighted in the tangible asset accounting policy), the trustees do not consider there to be any critical judgements or sources of estimation uncertainty within the financial statements.
(k) Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Freehold property - 1% straight line
Freehold land - held at cost
Plant and machinery - 15% reducing balance
Equipment - 15% reducing balance
(l) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. Accrued income and tax recoverable is included at the best estimate of the amounts receivable at the balance sheet date.
Page 21
WYMONDHAM COMMUNITY RUGBY TRUST NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
(m) Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly likely liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
(n) Pension scheme
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds.
(o) Creditors
Creditors 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 are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
(p) Stocks
Stocks are made up of bar and club shop stocks and are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making do allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.
(q) Taxation
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
(r) Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is only recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
(s) Investments
Investments are a form of basic financial instrument. For the Company they relate to shares in the trading subsidiary which are carried at cost with short term fixed interest investments held at banks measured at cost less impairment.
