The Trustees are delighted that we have managed to retain players and coaches and we are able to move forward with 17 teams (250 boys and girls) playing in the Mid-Cheshire and Junior Premier Leagues next season. The challenge recently has been our ability to recruit young players through our foundation but we have sufficient numbers recruited now for a new U8s team in the 22/23 season and an active Soccer School for boys and girls. The vision of the club remains to raise sufficient funds that we can acquire our own pitches and that we continue to have a flow of new teams moving through the foundation each year. |
| Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit |
Para 1.18 | The Trustees are happy to continue to delegate the day-to-day activities of the charity to the NVJFC club committee. |

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 30/06/2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
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 Trust’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.
Independent I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material examiner's matters have come to my attention in connection with the statement 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.
- Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply.
