## **RASTRICK JUNIOR FOOTBALL CLUB - Charity Number 1193874** 

## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT** 

The trustees are pleased to present their annual report and financial statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **CHARITY OBJECTS** 

The Charity [the “Club”] was registered with the Charity Commission as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 22 March 2021 and its Objects are: 

“The promotion of community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of children and young people living in, but not restricted to, Rastrick and surrounding areas, by the provision of facilities for playing football.” 

## **ACTIVITIES** 

The Club provides training facilities and runs junior football teams that participate in the Huddersfield and District Junior Football League, from Under 7 to Under 18 age groups. We have well over 400 young people who regularly take part in football activities, both boys and girls. 

Our emphasis is on providing young people with the opportunity to play football in a positive and supportive atmosphere that encourages player development but prioritises participation over winning. Young people are welcome, irrespective of ability. 

We welcome players, parents and supporters from all backgrounds, as defined by the protected characteristics within the Equality Act 2010. 

During the course of the year, we completed the development of a new club house to improve the facilities available to young people and we gratefully acknowledge the support of the Football Foundation, Garfield Weston, Rastrick Big Local, Rastrick Grammar School Foundation and the many volunteers who have helped make this possible through funding and other support. The new club house provides changing rooms, toilets, a kitchen and meeting facilities. 

In June 2023 we held a football tournament which was attended by hundreds of young children and spectators.  As well as providing football activities, the tournament allowed us to raise essential funds for our charitable activities and the tournament was one of several fundraising events that we held during the course of the year. 

We are committed to making our activities as accessible as possible and we recognise the challenging financial situation many families find themselves in.  No child is ever denied the opportunity of playing football because their families are unable to afford the cost and our player subscription fees were less than £3.50 per week. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

The overall management and governance of the Charity is carried out by a committee of volunteer trustees which delegates the day-to-day running of the charity to an Operational Committee comprising trustees and other volunteers. 

The trustees have responsibility for ensuring the Charity is properly funded through subscriptions and other means, including grants and fundraising activities. 

The Charity has developed a Strategic Risk Register which highlights a range of risks, 



including risks relating to child safeguarding, health & safety and financial management. There are mitigation risks in place to manage all identified risks. 

The Charity regularly reviews its operations to ensure they are delivering a significant public benefit, as required by the Charity Commission. 

## **INCOME AND EXPENDITURE (PROFIT & LOSS)** 

## **Income** 

The total incoming resources for the year ending 31 March 2024 were £108,305. 

## **Expenditure** 

Total expenditure for the year ending 31 March 2024 was £161,667. 

## **Surplus** 

There was a deficit of income over expenditure of £53,362. 

The Charity’s Profit & Loss account for 2023-24 included a depreciation sum of £19,688 for the clubhouse and a number of one-off and exceptional costs. For the financial year 2024-25, Trustees are forecasting a modest surplus and have no concerns to highlight. 

## **EXPRESSION OF APPRECIATION** 

We should like to express our appreciation to the many volunteers and local businesses that support the Charity and make possible the activities that we provide in the community; the Club quite simply could not do what it does without them. 


As highlighted above, we should also like to express our gratitude and appreciation to the Football Foundation, Rastrick Big Local, Rastrick Grammar School Foundation and Garfield Weston for providing funding for the development of the new clubhouse.
