Bury Athletic Club was registered as a
charitable incorporated organisation on the
29thJanuary 2021. The pre-cursor
unincorporated sports club was dissolved
with the consent of the members and the
club’s assets were transferred to the new
CIO. Six trustees were appointed by
members to assume responsibility for the
operation of the CIO. At this time the club
was emerging from the impact of the Covid
19 pandemic and started operating fully
again.
The club had historically established a not-
for profit company, BAC Facilities Ltd, that
employed the ground staff at the Market
Street track and managed the hiring and
upkeep of the facilities. This company was
dissolved in October 2021 and the staff
were transferred across to the CIO in line
with TUPE regulations. The company’s
assets were also transferred across to the
CIO.| 2 The CIO currently employs 4 members of ground staff, an administrator and a cleaner. All are employed on a part time basis. The CIO has also offered work experience to local students and works in conjunction with Bury College on this. **Membership and affiliation** In April 2021 the club introduced a new electronic membership system called Attendli. There were some initial teething problems but the system is now operating effectively and is used to collect the annual membership fee for the club and register attendance at training session and collect training fees. Membership during the year fluctuated between 340 and 370 members with an age range from 7 to 70. The club is affiliated to England Athletics and pays an annual affiliation fee. All of the club’s members are registered with England Athletics and the competitive members pay a registration fee which is collected as part of the club membership arrangements. For 2021/22 the registration fee was £15. The club is also affiliated to Northern Athletics and pays an annual affiliation fee to them which is based on the number of competitive members the club has. Again, this fee is collected as part of the club’s membership arrangements. This fee is currently set at £2 per athlete. The membership fees for the club (not including the registration/affiliation fees) for the year is £15 for junior/student members and £30 for senior members. The trustees set the membership fees to ensure that the club is inclusive. However, the club also operates a hardship system that allow the trustees to waive the membership fees and training fees of members who are facing significant financial hardship. **Training and Competition** The club’s organised training nights are each Tuesday and Thursday. Training commences at 6.30pm for the younger under 11 groups and the club closes at 3 |about 8.30pm. Sessions are run under the| |---| |guidance of qualified and accredited| |coaches and coaching assistants, together| |with some support from helpers. All the| |coaching team are volunteer and dedicate| |countless hours in supporting their athletes.| |Some coaches do hold additional sessions| |which are open to all members in the| |coaches age group. The following groups| |operate as part of the club’s coaching| |structure:| |•
Under 9s/Under 11s| |•

This is done by way of hiring agreements. The various groups that use the facility include: • Action 4 Children • Wheels for All • Jigsaw • Bury College • Local Primary Schools • Local Secondary Schools • Other local athletics clubs • Lancashire Race Walking Club • Accessible Festival • Other ad hoc users The club estimates that over the year more than 5000 different users benefitted from the use of the facilities. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: **----- Start of picture text -----**
