Trustees’ Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2024

Purpose

To promote community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of the inhabitants of Orpington and the surrounding areas by the provision of facilities for playing association football.

To promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of Orpington and the surrounding area the provision of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, financial hardship or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving the condition of life of the said inhabitants.

We do this through the provision of high quality football programmes, education and social activities. To effectively deliver this, we endeavour to continually develop the skills, knowledge and expertise of our extensive volunteer base. We ensure that all our volunteers maintain up to date DBS and safeguarding training.

The Football Club is part of the Kent FA, due to the historical Kent County boundaries including Orpington, and is a Three Star FA Chartered Standard Community Club, the most advanced level of club development and football provision.

Constitution

Orpington Football Club is a charitable company limited by guarantee which obtained its charitable status in April 2020. The company was established under a memorandum of association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up each member of the Board is required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.

Prior to registering as a charity Orpington Football Club operated as a non-profit unincorporated body guided by its constitution.

Orpington Football Club is a FA Charter Standard Community club, based in Orpington, playing football at Goddington Park. The Club has football teams for boys, girls, men, ladies & SEN with over 600 members playing in 35 teams. Orpington Football Club has continued to grow over the past few periods, making it one of the largest Charter Standard Clubs in the South East of England.

Principal activities

The Board of Trustees presents its Annual Report and independently examined Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2024 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a Directors’ Report and Accounts for Companies Act purposes.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) effective from 1 January 2015.

Review of the period and future activities

The 2023-24 football season saw OFC grow to six adult teams and 35 youth teams, playing across the Kent Girls and Ladies Youth League, Selkent League, Kent Youth League, Kent County League and Orpington & Bromley District Sunday Football Leagues. A notable achievement was our U18 girls winning both the KGLFL Tina Marshall Cup and a KGLFL Shield Competition, showcasing the Club’s commitment to development girls and women’s football.

Review of the period and future activities (continued)

All three provisions were extremely popular with over 50 children attending every week. These programs lead to the development of 2 new boys’ teams in the 23/24 season.

Sponsorship:

We continue to maintain a great relationship with our Club Sponsor, Manak Solicitors, who have agreed to sponsor our Club kit as part of a three-year sponsorship agreement ending at the end of the 24-25 season. We have many team sponsors that support individual teams by providing branded training kit for their team.

Pitches:

We continue to partner with the Football Foundation, taking advantage of the “Power of Pitches” funding and we are in the final year of the six-year pitch improvement work. This over-seeding, fertilising and verti-draining has led to significant improvements in the standard of our pitches.

The Club received £6,212 in grant funding in the 23-24 season (22-23: £20,801), including the Power of Pitches funding referred to above.

Pavilion Project:

After 4 years of applying and reapplying, the Club were thrilled to be granted planning permission on 9 November 2023, and are still working with Bromley Council to agree the new lease and license to make this project fundable and move it forward. The Club has commenced fundraising with a PWC sponsored walk and have developed fundraising targets and strategy. We plan to break ground in September 2027.

Our focus for the 24-25 season:

Public benefit

The Trustees of the Football Club, having taken due regard of the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit, are satisfied that the work of the Football Club fulfils its charitable aims, which are for the wider public benefit.

The Football Club’s main benefits to the public are:

The Board of Trustees

The Football Club is committed to exhibiting best practice in all aspects of corporate governance. The Football Club’s governing body comprises a Board of 5 members. These members are listed with the current status of membership on Legal and administrative information page.

It is the Board’s responsibility to bring independent judgement to bear on issues of strategy, performance, resources and standards of conduct. The Board conducts its business through quarterly Board meetings.

All Trustees may take independent professional advice in furtherance of their duties at the Football Club’s expense. The Board considers that each of its non-executive members is independent of its management and free from any business or other relationship which could materially interfere with the exercise of their independent judgement. All members are required to make a formal declaration of any interest at each meeting and are required to complete a written declaration confirming that they are eligible to act as Trustees of the Charity as recommended by the Charity Commission.

Appointments to the Board of Trustees

In line with the Board’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, any new appointment to the Board of Trustees is a matter for consideration by the directors. The Trustees are responsible for ensuring that appropriate induction, training and information is provided as required.

Learning and Development of the Board of Trustees

The Board seeks to recruit new members in line with clearly defined needs for knowledge and experience. Football Club Trustees are inducted into the Football Club’s work in meetings with the Chair of Trustees and the Club Chairman. A portfolio of Football Club policies is available. Trustees receive learning and development opportunities annually, with members of the Football Club staff.

Internal Control: Board of Trustees

The Board is ultimately responsible for the Football Club’s system of internal control and for reviewing its effectiveness. However, the Board recognises that any such system can only manage and not eliminate the risk of failure to achieve business objectives. Also, it can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance against any material misstatement or loss. This system of internal control is based on an ongoing process designed to identify and prioritise any risks to the achievement of Football Club policies, aims and objectives and aspirations and to evaluate the likelihood and impact of such risks being realised. The Board then seeks to manage these efficiently, effectively and economically. These controls are designed to give reasonable assurance with respect to:

The Board considers that the directors, who are the trustees, and all Executive Committee members comprise the key management personnel of the charity. The Executive Committee members are in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Football Club on a day to day basis. All Trustees and Executive Committee members give freely of their time and none received remuneration in the period. Details of Trustees’ expenses are disclosed in the notes to the accounts.

Risk Management

The Board has a risk register and a policy statement which includes specific detailing of the Board’s responsibilities. This includes an outline of key risks and a schedule and action plan for the carrying out of that responsibility. The policy and the workings of the register are formally reviewed by the Board each period. The Board recognises that risk can never be eliminated entirely and that there are aspects of work in which the Football Club rightly has an appetite for risk - including its commitment to recruiting students from nontraditional backgrounds. However, in its financial dealings and its promotion of its aims, the Football Club continues to manage any inevitable risk robustly and effectively.

Consequently, the Board of Trustees is of the view that there is a formal ongoing process in place for identifying, evaluating and managing the Football Club’s significant risks. This process has been in place and operational throughout the period. During the past period, the Trustees reviewed the Risk Register in respect of contingency planning and to managing the risks related to any potential loss of capital assets. The key risks have been assessed and identified as:

  1. Safeguarding and safety of our players

  2. Completeness of the Membership Register

  3. Security of the assets at the Pavilion

  4. Controls around Cash and Payments

  5. Recruitment and retention of volunteers, particularly coaches and managers

The above risks have been identified and reviewed. Systems have been put in place to mitigate these risks. Particular focus has been placed on the security of the Pavilion having been burgled in July 2017 and the related insurance policies.

The Treasurer reports back to the Board of Trustees and the minutes of these meetings are made available to all Trustees.

Trustees’ Annual Report for the period ended 30 June 2024 (continued)

Internal control: Executive Committee

The Board of Trustees has delegated day to day responsibility for reviewing the adequacies of internal controls and for making any appropriate amendments to the Club Chairman and Executive Committee. They are thereby responsible for reporting to the Board any material weakness or breakdown in internal control which may arise.

The Club Chairman and Executive Committee acknowledges responsibility for ensuring that an effective system of internal control is maintained, operated and recorded by Orpington Football Club. The system provides reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, transactions authorised, properly recorded and material errors or irregularities are either prevented or would be detected within a timely period. This is based on a framework of regular management information, administrative procedures and a clear system of delegation and accountability. In particular, this system ensures that:

The Board has no reason to doubt that the financial information presented to them is accurate and timely, taking into account all known factors.

Fundraising statement

Section 162a of the Charities Act 2011 requires charities to make a statement regarding fundraising activities. Although we do not undertake widespread fundraising from the general public, the legislation defines fund raising as “soliciting or otherwise procuring money or other property for charitable purposes.” Such amounts receivable, are presented in our accounts as “voluntary income” and includes legacies and grants.

In relation to the above we confirm that all solicitations are managed internally, without involvement of commercial participators or professional fund-raisers, or third parties. The day to day management of all income generation is delegated to the Executive Committee, who are accountable to the Trustees.

The charity is not bound by any undertaking to be bound by any regulatory scheme and the charity does not consider it necessary to comply with any voluntary code of practice. We have received no complaints in relation to fundraising activities. Our terms of employment require staff to behave reasonably at all times; as we do not approach individuals for funds we do not have to particularise this to fundraising activities nor do we consider it necessary to design specific procedures to monitor such activities.

Financial Review

Overall, the Board of Trustees is satisfied that these accounts reflect the financial position of the Football Club during the period.

Income for the period totalled £167,565 (2023: 166,698). There was an increase in subscriptions, with smaller increases in donations and other income, compared to a decrease in grants.

Expenditure for the period was similar to last year with an increase of £1,650. Match and training costs showed a small decrease whilst administration and running costs increased.

Overall for the period the Football Club made a profit of £18,140 (2023: profit of £18,923).

The Club has covered the costs of delivering services through subscriptions and sponsorship with a small start to the Pavilion fundraising effort. As costs are increasing significantly in the last few years, we will have to consider increasing subscriptions for the 24-25 season.

Reserves policy

The Football Club continues to aim to operate a policy of maintaining reserves at a level to cover three months of committed operational costs. This has been assessed to be £34,500 (2023: £27,000) and is represented by the General Fund balance carried forward.

In light of this the Trustees believe the Football Club’s reserves position to be satisfactory and sufficient.

Going concern

The Football Club continues to appraise its financial situation and to adapt its business model accordingly.

The Trustees have set guidance that the Football Club should budget to meet all commitments and obligations to its players and other stakeholders. They have prepared these accounts on a going concern basis and are satisfied that there are sufficient cash reserves to cover operations.

Trustees’ Responsibilities

Each of the Trustees (directors) has confirmed that so far as they are aware, there is no relevant information of which the company's Independent Examiner is unaware, and that they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a director in order to become aware of any relevant information and to establish that the company's Independent Examiner is aware of that information.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities for the period ended 30 June 2024

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company and charity law require the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period. Under company law the Trustees 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 charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, of the charity for the period. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate and proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's report to the members and Trustees of Orpington Football Club

I report on my examination of the accounts of Orpington Football Club for the period ended 30 June 2024.

Responsibilities and basis of report

The Trustees 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 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 examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do 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.

Orpington Football Club (INCORPORATED) Limited by guarantee

Notes to the Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2024

1. Accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the Charities Act 2011, the Charities’ Statement of Recommended Practice (Charities SORP (FRS 102) as amended by Update Bulletin 2) and Financial Reporting Standard 102 applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006. Orpington Football Club constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Going concern

The Trustees have prepared these accounts on a going concern basis. They have reviewed the budgets and forecasts forming the charity’s business plan for a period in excess of twelve months beyond the date of signing of the account. The Trustees consider therefore that they have reasonable assurance that the charity will continue to operate. This includes any negative financial impact as a result of COVID-19.

Funds

General funds represent the funds of the Company that are not subject to any restriction regarding their use and are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the objectives of the charitable company.

Designated funds are funds set aside at the discretion of the Trustees for a particular purpose and carry no restrictions. Restricted funds consist of grants and bursaries which are subject to restrictions on their expenditure by the donor.

Income

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charitable company is entitled to the income, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. Grants and donations received as Restricted Funds, defined as those which carry an obligation to repay any sums not actually spent, are brought into the SOFA in the period of receipt and carried forward within Restricted Funds until either spent or refunded.

Deferred income

Where unconditional entitlement to grants receivable and fees paid in advance is dependent upon fulfilment of conditions within the Football Club’s control, the incoming resources are recognised when there is sufficient evidence that conditions have been met. Where there is uncertainty as to whether the Football Club has met such conditions, or the funder clearly states that the funding is for the next financial period, then the incoming resource is deferred. Subscriptions are recognised over the duration of membership, fees received in advance are accounted for in liabilities and released over the period of membership.

Expenditure

Expenditure is included in the accounts on an accruals basis.

Charitable activities

All costs are allocated between categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly or apportioned on an appropriate basis.

Orpington Football Club

(INCORPORATED) Limited by guarantee

Notes to the Financial Statements for the period ended 30 June 2024

1. Accounting policies (continued)

Tangible fixed assets

All capital expenditure below £500 is written off as and when it is incurred. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets other than freehold land and buildings, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life, as follows:

Fittings and education equipment -

over 4 to 10 years

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Taxation

Orpington Football Club is a registered charity within the meaning of paragraph 1 of schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010. Accordingly it is exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains within categories covered by chapter 3 of Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. No tax charge arose in the period.

Judgements in applying accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the company's accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

In preparing these financial statements, the key judgements and estimates have been made in respect of the following:
