Other than that, the Club is run entirely<br>by volunteers, both in relation to sporting<br>activities, managing the Clubhouse and Grounds,<br>administration/governance and for additional help<br>in the bar and kitchen as needed.<br>Ground and clubhouse maintenance are carried<br>out by volunteers although contractors are<br>brought in as required for more substantial works.<br>The volunteer support from everyone during the<br>season has been considerable.

Six lunches were held, all well attended. The Christmas lunch had over 170 people enjoying the festivities None of the clubs’ successes would be possible without every single one of the club volunteers, be it coaches, first aiders, team managers, helpers in the kitchen or bar, the grounds team, physios, but also to the club committee and the Club Steward. In relation to cricket, summer 2023 saw over 75 Other children, aged 5 to 13, enjoying Sunday soft and hard ball cricket training.  Three cricket camps were held at the club and cricket tournaments were attended by the various age groups. The U13 boys had a great season, culminating in them winning the Weald of Kent Cup Final by eight wickets. The planning permission for the new clubhouse will be submitted to Tunbridge Wells Borough Council in June 2024. The launch of the club’s vision and plans for the new clubhouse were well received at the end of season lunch, and to club members that were not at the lunch in the following weeks.  Fundraising is key, which must be a whole club effort and the Clubhouse Development team will be coordinating this to start in earnest as soon as the planning decision is received. This new building will not only have a massive impact on how we are able to run as a club, but also to the Cranbrook town community - it must be seen as a community asset moving forward. Numbers attending the senior men’s touch and pre- season training last summer were good, and this continued to be the case throughout the season on both Tuesday and Thursday nights. Recruitment went well, and it was great to see a good number of players returning to the club following the end of their Uni studies. Despite the good numbers at training, Saturday availability due to work and family commitments was a challenge and unfortunately it was decided to withdraw the Nomads from their league and to  concentrate  on  friendly  matches  for  the remainder of the season. Following a brilliant win over  Crowborough  in  the  last  match  of  the season, the 1XV finished the season in 10[th] place in the Counties 1 Kent league. The Nomads also finished the season in style with a very 



impressive  win  at  home  against  Gillingham Anchorians and are looking forward to playing their  rugby  in  the  Kent  A  Rural  league  in September. The last 3 weeks have seen over 60 seniors, colts and older juniors at each of the summer touch sessions, with a few new faces too. Despite the mixed results for the men this season, we must congratulate the men’s captains Hamish Gillanders, Fabian Rimmer, Josh Parkes and Elliot Barbour for the great role models they have been this season to the young squad that we have, as well as to our Director of Rugby Chris Catt and the men’s coaches, Josh Pankhurst, Matt Franklin and Toby Freeman. The ladies also had good numbers at pre- season last summer, but it was soon apparent that the league commitments and standard was going to be a step too far for the squad, which had quite a few new players to the game. It was therefore agreed to withdraw from the league and join forces  with  Maidstone  ladies,  who  were  also struggling.  This was a good arrangement that allowed our ladies to play in a lower league and gain a lot of valuable match experience.  The ladies  held  a  RFU  Inner  Warrior  recruitment event and have gained a number of new players across the last 6 months and are looking forward to re- entering the RFU leagues in September as a Cranbrook Ladies team. The ladies enjoyed a tour to Barcelona in September, bringing home the silverware  for  the  second  year  in  a  row.  A massive thanks and congratulations must go to Lyndsey  and  Nigel  Posey,  Des  Amanono  and captain Shanie Watson for their continued hard work and drive with the ladies section. The Falcons (Colts) section has continued to go from strength to strength, with the new “Jaeger Log” up for grabs during friendly matches with opposition clubs, and have won  most matches and only suffered one heavy defeat. Numbers have been good across the whole season, and the boys seem to appreciate being treated as a greater part of the club, with mid-week training, playing on Sands and social media team selection all contributing to that. The Juniors had a great season with 30 friendly matches  played,  as  well  as  the  competitive games  in  the  Kent  Waterfall,  League  and  7s competitions.  Match  results  across  the  age 



groups have been very encouraging, and show what  talent  there  is  amongst the squads. Numbers have been good at all age groups, with new players recruited even at the end of the season.  The  U14s  and  U15s  both  had  very enjoyable and successfully tours towards the end of the season.  The minis have seen also seen good numbers, again with new children turning up  for  training  in  the  last  few  weeks  of  the season.   They  also  had  a  good  mix  of  joint training  session  with  other  clubs,  as  well  as attending festivals throughout the year, culminating with the Kent Age Group Festivals, where all reports back were very positive. Father Christmas made an appearance at the Christmas Party (he must change his boots next year!!), and the Fergy Gask Cup inter age group tournament was not only a great success but saw the Minis raising over £600 in memory of Fergy, which was donated to the Armed Forces charity. The Minis’ end of season tour to Leicester was enjoyed by all of the youngest members, and maybe the not so young members 

The  junior  girls  continue  to  play  as  affiliated teams  with  TJ’s  and  Tunbridge  Wells,  seeing these  joint  club  teams  have  good  successes across the season, with the U14s being crowned Kent champions, and the U16 Weald Warriors team winning the 7s Kent plate competition.

## **Cranbrook Sports Club Company No. 10310946 Directors' Report For The Year Ended 30 April 2024** 

The directors present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 30 April 2024. 

## **Directors** 

The directors who held office during the year were as follows: 

Mr Tim Fagg 

Mrs Caroline Cannar 

Mr Peter Jovanovic 

Mr Peter Jovanovic 

## **Statement of Directors' Responsibilities** 

The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors 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 company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the directors are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgments and accounting 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 directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. 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. 

The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

## **Small Company Rules** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

Our work has been undertaken solely to prepare for your approval the accounts of Cranbrook Sports Club and state those matters that we have agreed to state to the directors of Cranbrook Sports Club, as a body, in this report. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than Cranbrook Sports Club and its directors, as a body, for our work or for this report. 

It is your duty to ensure that Cranbrook Sports Club has kept adequate accounting records and to prepare statutory accounts that give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of Cranbrook Sports Club. You consider that Cranbrook Sports Club is exempt from the statutory audit requirement for the year.

Independent Examiner's report to the 

## **COMMITTEE MEMBERS OF CRANBROOK SPORTS CLUB Charity Number 1172923** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2024 which are set out on pages 4 to 9. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: 

• examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act 

• follow the procedures laid down m the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act and 

• 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 statement below. 

Independent examiner's statement 

In connection with my examination no matter has come to my attention 

1.Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements 

• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act and 

• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or 

2.To which, In my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
