We continue to be very grateful for the many hours volunteers have spent
coaching the players of our football club as we maintain our number of
teams and increase our footballing provision.
We also are very grateful for the hours of groundwork that a very srnall
group of volunteers underlake to keep the playing Surfa￿ in a playable

Without this valuable contribution of time, energy and expertise we would
not have been able to provide such a valuable sporting service to our
community as well as improving the facilities at Hard Lane.
Our club continues to grow from strength to strength and we now have a
full pathway for boys and girls right through to adult football, including
Over 35 and 45s teams. This would not have been possible without the
time and effort of coaches volunteering their time to help make a safe
and enjoyable environment.

volunteers.
We have increased our football provision through the introduction of
walking, women's recreational and disabilily football, thus ensuring there
is a￿sS to football for all within our communily.
We continue to search actively for grants to help with key projects and to
develop the club further. This is done by committee members and
coaches within the club and we ensure we make applications to obtain
any relevant grant opportunities as this is a key funding stream for us as
a charity.

Section D
Achievements and performance
Our clubhouse at Storth Lane continues to be a Suc￿ss, providing
players. coaches and spectators a place to socialise as well as obtain
refreshments. The building has enabled us to hold club meetings, deliver
training sessions and host end of season presentations. The café
continues to be rented and operated by a third party and is open for all
training and malches.
Summary of the main
achievernents of the charity
during the year
Due to the difficult weather during the 2023-24 season, the pitches at
Storth Lane were regularly unplayable. The rates for hiring the 3G for
matches in the afternoon were putting considerable financial pressure on
the club so we sort alternative grass pitches. This led us back to our old
home ground of Hard Lane. After negotiations we entered in to an
agreement with Kiveton Miners Welfare (KMW) to renl the pitches and
facilities. KMW have a 93 year lease with CISWO for the site. The site is
also home to Kiveton Park Colliery Cricket Club so this opened up more
opportunities to work with another important communty asset.
The 2024-25 season is our first operating across the 2 sites. Winter
training is still held on the 3G at Storth Lane and summer Iraining is split
between both sites. The younger junior matches continue to be held on
the 3G on weekend mornings whilst some of our older junior teams play
at Hard Lane. All senior teams play their matches on th8 grass pitches at
Hard Lane on weekend afternoons.
Access to the 3G has allowed us to continue to grow our other football
provision of walking, women's rec and disability football. Both our walking
and disability teams have entered leagues Ihis season so are competing
in matches as well as Iraining.
The move to Hard Lane meant a considerable amount of work was
required to get the pitches and grounds ready for the 2024-25 season.
We had a team of volunteers help with a wide variety of tasks, from
strimming verges to decorating changing rooms and all manner of Irades
offered their servic8s for free, which demonstrated the true community
spirit of the club. The move meant we were able to sell our tractor, as we
could use the one already on site, but we purchased Gontainers and a
toilet block to enhance the facilities at Hard Lane.
The hire cost for Ihe changing rooms and toilet block at Storth Lane was
also becoming unmanageable. Removal costs quoted by the hire
company were cor)siderable so we made the deGision to purcha58 the 3
containers. We were then able to sell these privately at the end of the 24-
25 financial year. Provision of toilet facilities at Storth Lane are now the
responsibility of the school as part of the 3G funding.
We have kept our aim of having a full complement of male and female
teams by adding on8 Under 7 boys teams, a girls Under 8 leam as well
as retaining our other teams, including 2 women's teams, over 35s and
45s. Our club now hosts 30 teams, with over 80 coaches and 400
registered players.
We continue to collect subscriptions for this season by standing order
into our club bank account. It is still a challenge to keep on top of
payments and encourage members to keep up to date.
TAR
March 2012

Section D
Achievements and performance
We held our first music festival in the spring which was a huge success.
Run by volunteers and open to all the community. this was a good
fundraiser.
We continued to seek and obtain grants from various organisations
(Football Foundation, Coop etc) to help us improve facilities and
purchase equipment to keep the club and its teams running. We also
attended FA run courses on various subjects to develop our volunteers
knowledge base. We continue to support young people through access to
referee and coaching courses and now have a strong pool of referees at
the club, some of whom are now progressing higher up the referee ranks.
Section E
Financial review
Cash at the bank on 31 March 2025 was £38.913. Our income exceeded
expenditure by £13,988. There are additional costs which are due but not
paid this financial year and these have been listed as liabilities due to be
paid after the year end. This happens consistently each financial year as
the hire of the 3G and utilities is paid a month in arrears. so the 24-25
accounts include payment of the final month for financial year 23-24.
Brief statement of the
charity's policy on reserves
The club paid for the monthly hire cost for the changing rooms and toilets
until Sept 24. The cosl of these was having a significant impad on th8
club's ability to maintain or increase our cash reserves. We also had a
£3,000 cost to hire the schools grass pitches for the year. Consequently
we sort allernative grass pitches (as explained elsewhere in this report)
which meant we no longer needed the toiletsl¢hanging rooms. The cost
to have these removed from site by the hire company was higher than
the cost to purchase them so the club mada the decision to buy them for
£11,756. We subsequently sold these towards the end of the 2024-25
financial year for £12.500 - the deposit of £2,500 was received this
financial year with the balance to be received in FY 2025-26.
The cost of hire of the 3G for winter training and matches has reduced.
This is because of the move to the grass pitches at Hard Lane, so
afternoon matches are played there thus reducing the need to hire the
3G for weekend aftemoons. There is the additional cost of £3.500 per
year for the hire of the Hard Lane site but this is considerably less than
the total cost to hire the grass pitches at storth Lane, the 3G cost for
I weekend afternoons and the hire of the changing roomsltoilets.
The move to Hard Lane also meanl we were able to sell our tractor as
there is one available for use at the site. so this brought in a one off
income of £17,500.
Our player subscriptions have increased around 4 % from last year. We
have 2 less junior teams but have added walking, disability and women's
rec football which has brought in new subs plus we increased the total
subs for the season.
Sponsorship income has reduced this year as we had a big push with this
last year and most teams are in the second year of their deal.
Expenditure on sponsored kit is higher than the income as some balance
funds were carried over from the previous year to cover top ups for new
players. We are very gratefvl to the numerous local businesses who
su
ort our Glub.

Further flnanclal revlew details {Optlonal Infonnation)
Analysis of our income shows our primary source is again from players
subscriplions which this year accounted for 68 % of our income {excluding
one off asset sales) totalling £83,860. Last year this figure was 61 % of all
income which demonstrates we have remained consistent at obtaining
other funding streams to help run and develop the club.
You may choose to include
additional information, where
relevant about:
the charity's principal
sources of funds (including
any fundraising).
how expenditure has
supported the key objectives
of the charity.,
investment policy and
objectives including any
ethical inveslmenl policy
adopted.
Income from our trading company, KPFC Social Ltd. Gontinues to provide
a valuable source of inGome although this has reduced as there was a
period of time when use of the clubhouse fell whilst we moved some of
our matches to the new Hard Lane site.
We secured £5,070 in gift aid this season. This figure has increased from
last season as we sort advice from a gift aid consultsnt and we were able
to Claim on memberships, small donations and also expenses for a small
number of volunteers (there are separate lines in the income and
expenditure for these). This is an area we are looking to expand further
next year.
We secured £2.122 of grants compared to £9,838 the p￿VIouS financial
year. This has redU￿d due to some funding streams no longer being
available. We continue lo explore all grant opportunities and have
secured a significant grant from the Football Foundation for development
of the grass pilches which will be received over 5 years starting next
financial year.
As the weather greatly impacted our tournament last year we decided to
hold a music festival instead which was a huge success and brought in a
profit of around £3.000.
We set up a Just Giving fund raiser to specifically Taise money for a small
toilet container for the Hard Lane site to supplement the facilities already
at the site. This brought in just over £2,500 and allowed us to purchase
the container and provide utilities. We also continue to receive small
amounts from Easy Fundraising. This is a funding stream we wish lo
expand further next year.
We continue to recoup the cost of fines from players.
Our largest cost is the hire of the 3G for training and rnatches but as
explained earlier we have reduced this by moving some match6s to Hard
Lane.
Waste disposal costs have increased slightly as we now need bin
collections at 2 sites.
Expenditure on referee fees has increased since last year as the FA
increased rates by £5 per match so on a previous £20 match fee, this is a
250/0 increase.
Our ground maintenance costs are consistent with previous years.
There are new expenditure lines in the accounts for Hard Lane repairs
and rent. Sundry repair works were required at the new site including
skips to remove rubbish and materials for changing room repairs.
TAR
MarGh 2012

We also purchased storage containers and other sundry equipment from
the old tenant at the Hard Lane site totalling £4,000. This and the repair
works has been funded by the sale of the tractor.
The rent for the Hard Lane site is £3,500 and there are also utility costs
for electricity and water. The utility costs at the Storth Lane site have
reduced though so offset these.
We continue to seek new sponsors for kit and have managed to provide
all leams with a home kit. The expenditure on unsponsored kit and
equipment has reduced as we now have a team in pla￿ who are
managing this more effectively. We will continue lo work with our current
sponsors and develop our relalionships with local businesses to secure
additional sponsorship, so all our players are provided with a home and
away ktt.
Coaches training costs have increased as we paid for 3 coaches to
undertake their UEFA C training which cost £650 per person. We
Gontinue lo invest in the training of our coaGhes to ensure we are
providing the best experience for our players.
League fees are comparable to last season.
Expenditure on trophies has reduced this year as we have not had to pay
an advance deposit for the 24-25 season trophies as we have previous
years.
Miscellaneous costs have increased as we had to contribute £1,400 to
the repair of the pump to the changing roomslwcs.
We will continue to invest in the players and the club lo develop and
provide high quality facilities for all from the local community. We have
developed our volunteer base with a new health and safety advisor along
with volunteers assisting with events and fundraising.
Section F
Other optional information
Future plans:
We plan to develop further our disability football provision by introducing an older age team, whilst
consolidating the rnale and female leams and the walking football provision. The Glub will ensure every new
coach is level 1 qualified and will provide the option for other coaches lo undertake their UEFA C training.
We will continue to encourage and support players who wish to pursue refereeing and young players with
theii playmaker course and will also look to set up a mentorlsupport group for our young referees.
We are exploring grants for new changing rooms and clubhouse at the Hard Lane site and will continue to
seek other areas of funding to develop this site.
We will continue to explore other fundraising ideas, including sponsored events and a club prize draw. We
are also looking at specific football apps which will make the collection of subs and Gommunication generally
more efficient.
W8 also want to work with the young players at our club in developing a social media group who can
improve the clubs visibility whilst also providing the young volunteers with valuable experience in areas other
than just playing football such as photography, match reporting, player interviews etc
