Wyre Juniors is an FA Charter Standard Football club. 

For the 2022-2023 season we have had approximately 250 children playing and training football over 21 football teams from the age of U7’s to U18’s. We have also continued to run a Saturday Morning football club for our more junior members 4yrs -7 yrs. attracting weekly numbers of around 15 - 20 children. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

Once again, the majority of our footballing teams have been entered into either the Blackpool or Poulton District Football Leagues or the Lancaster and Morecambe STYL, and this again has proved very successful. 

All of our team members attend weekly training sessions under the guidance of our coaches who are all qualified to a minimum FA level 1 standard and have been required to undertake all the relevant training such as first aid, safeguarding etc. 

The club ensures that all our managers, assistants, and any other adult who comes into contact with children are DBS checked. 

Training venues during spring and summer are generally held at our home pitches whilst all teams are located to relevant venues during the winter months. 

All our coaching staff and committee members offer their services voluntarily. 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

The club is working with Wyre Villa football club to ensure there are opportunities for our players after U18’s football to transgress into adult football. Currently we have several players who are now part of the Wyre Villa reserves side. 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

We also have agreed access to Wyre Villa facilities which includes the use of their home pitch and pavilion/changing rooms for our Wyre Juniors older sides. 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

Our club has continued to grow with the provision of football and training for approximately 250 children along with Saturday morning football coaching sessions for our junior members. We have maintained separate goalkeeper coaching sessions specifically for our goalkeepers in conjunction with “DC Goalkeeping” which has proved extremely successful. Our footballing teams have been very competitive, and once again some teams have won trophies whilst others gained promotions in their respective leagues. A few teams have also had the experience of playing cup finals at Fleetwood Towns Stadium – “Highbury” and at “Bloomfield Road” - Blackpool FC. 

Our annual football club awards presentation is to be held on June 11[th] and promises to be a great fun family event for all. We were successful in securing grant monies from “Sported UK” which has enabled us to renew some of our ageing equipment. 

For the first time in the club’s history, we have had a WJ U18’s side and an all-girls football team WJ u10’s Jets, and next season we will enter two U18 sides into leagues. 

We will have 21 teams in all next season across three different leagues and this is a tremendous achievement for the club and encouraging to see how this youth football club is continuing to thrive. 

The club has been working lately with Wyre Villa football club to ensure there are opportunities for our players after U18’s football to eventually transgress into adult football. We currently have some of our older players training with Wyre Villa. 

We are actively involved with a sponsorship programme to allow our players the opportunity to attend referee courses with the FA. 

For the first time in the history of our club, one of our junior sides was able to travel to Barcelona in Spain at Easter for a football tournament which proved to be a great success for all of those involved including parents. 

The club continually seeks invest and improve facilities to ensure the best possible and safest experience for our players, parents, and volunteers.
