Great Clifton Community Youth Group. Annual Report 1 April 2021 -31 March 2022
After the coronavirus lockdown was eased, weekly football sessions were restarted on 14 July 2021. Coaching was initially provided by the Cumbria Youth Alliance but was taken over from 11 August by a local volunteer, Wayne Wedgwood, later assisted for several months by Martin Andradez. Under-14s play from 17.30 – 18.30 and older teenagers for an hour after that. Usually there are about 15 in each age group. The goalposts were left permanently on the football ground; they were used on most days and suffered no intentional damage.
The Youth Group took part in organising and running the Great Clifton Fun Day on 31 July 2021: this included a dog show, races, a tug-ofwar and a football competition, as well as inflatables, stalls, food etc. The state of the floodlighting for the football ground was examined and initial steps taken to renovate the shelter housing the switches. Grants sufficient to cover the cost have been received. Mrs Stephanie Fleming of Riverside, Vice-chair of the Derwent Vale School Board of Governors, agreed to be safeguarding officer for the GCCYG.
