**training and exercise programmes in their own homes to keep fit and healthy. COMIC RELIEF COVID-19 GRANT APPLICATIONS – the Charity continued to work closely with Sporting Equals to understand how we could assist our network to apply for COVID-19 Grant Funding. Charity members were trained in how they could safely return to training sessions (with limited numbers in training groups) and identifying COVID-19 infection control equipment needed to provide a safe training environment. LONDON MARATHON CHARITY TRUST COVID-19 FAITH CENTRE GRANT APPLICATIONS – the Charity continued worked closely with the London Charity Marathon Trust in collaboration with Sporting Equals and GNG Smethwick Gurdawara (Sikh Faith Centre) to identify and train members of the faith centre to be able to run physical activity sports sessions in Yoga, Table Tennis and Badminton using the unused facilities within the faith centre itself. FA UPSHOT TOOL – the Charity launched an initiative for all affiliated member clubs to use the FA’s Upshot tool for recording physical activity participation. As each partner club used the tool to capture their activities, the Charity would be able to provide consolidated reports detailing the impact our network is having within the UK, by region or a particular geographical area. This information would be able to assist us with future funding applications and clubs were trained in how to use this tool. HEALTH: COVID-19 – the charity supported member clubs during COVID-19 lockdown restrictions by encouraging clubs to use social media to encourage communities to take up individual training and exercise programmes in their own homes to keep fit and healthy.

**physical activity training sessions to members. SPORTS PARTICIPATION: KFF Summer Tournaments – Due to continued COVID-19 issues we were unable to attain sufficient facilities to delivered our normal five Summer football Tournament season across the UK. However, this year we were still able to deliver 3 tournaments with projects taking place in the following locations: Walsall, Leicester and Bedford. Each event provided the opportunity for structured Asian football teams playing amateur football in local FA leagues to compete in a knock-out tournament. Events were attended by in excess of 1,500 participants in the form of players, coaches and spectators with participants in the following age groups U8’s, U9’s, U11’s, U13’s, U15’s. Adult and Vets football. COMIC RELIEF COVID-19 GRANT - the Charity worked in collaboration with Sporting Equals as an activator and our network of clubs to enable clubs to successfully make grant funding applications allowing them to resume training post the COVID-19 lockdown. Member clubs initially encourage participants to train individually in their back gardens and send videos which were then sent out to other club members on social media to encourage engagement in physical activity. As lockdown eased, the funding allowed member clubs to purchase additional equipment needed to adhere to COVID19 infection control measures such as ensuring each participant has their own football, their own football training top or bib, face masks, hand sanitiser etc. LONDON MARATHON CHARITY TRUST COVID-19 FAITH CENTRE GRANT APPLICATIONS – the Charity continued worked closely with the London Charity Marathon Trust in collaboration with Sporting Equals and GNG Smethwick Gurdawara (Sikh Faith Centre) to identify and train members of the faith centre to be able to run physical activity sports sessions in Yoga, Table Tennis**

KFF Representative Team – the Charity launched it’s own representative team to ensure that there was going to be a provision for the BAME community in Birmingham to be able to play competitive football at a semiprofessional level. We worked in collaboration with a member club to provide both financial and coaching support for an 18 month period. Development of local Clubs – the charity continues to support local communities across the UK to resume post-COVID friendly sports activities as well as helping existing clubs provide additional community engagement by introducing “Walking Football”, “Walking Clubs” and “Heath Awareness” programmes. “Walking Football” proved popular during this period as it was a minimal contact sport and helped people of all ages and sexes with the opportunity to rediscover the joys of playing football where the basic elements of playing competitive football are made accessible to the participants through the game being reduced to walking pace and minimal contact. The initiative addresses both social inactivity and social isolation in the community from COVID-19 concerns. “Walking Clubs” proved popular within the community as it require little/no equipment and could be taken up by individual members as well as people in small groups. The initiative addresses both social inactivity and social isolation within the community especially women. “Running Clubs” proved popular with members recording running times and encouraging messages on social media and posting on the club/faith centre face-book pages. SOCIAL INCLUSION: Anti Racism – the charity continues to support national anti-racism football campaigns with “Kick-it Out” and “Show Racism the Red Card”. Through raising awareness activities we have continued to raise the profile of these key**
