Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30 September 2024
The trustees present their report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2024. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Objectives and Activities
The objects of the CIO are the advancement of amateur sport by promoting the community participation in healthy recreation, for the benefit of the residents of Churchill, Somerset and the surrounding area, by (A) the provision of facilities for playing cricket;(B) encouraging and developing where possible the cricketing skills and knowledge of senior and junior members.
Achievements and Performance
All the charity's trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit when exercising their powers and duties.
This season the club continued to expand the junior and womem's sections. Junior cricket coaching sessions were held during the winter months in indoor nets and outdoor coaching and matches were held from April until the end of the school term in July. Both boys and girls took an active part in training and matches. The training was run by qualified coaches and the club paid for training courses for new coaches so that we now have 5 fully qualified instructors.
Over 80 juniors took part in the training sessions at under 7,9,11 and 13 age groups and the under 11 and 13 teams played competitive cricket in the North Somerset Youth Cricket League. The trustees expect that these groups will continue to play in the 2025 season as the juniors showed great enthusiasm for the game and were supported by many parents and volunteers. The trustees are grateful to all those who helped in organising the matches and taking the juniors to away games, which gave them the opportunity to play at new grounds.
At the end of the season there was an awards cricket festival for the under 7s and under 9s teams at which every child who had participated received a medal and top performers received an additional award. It was a great day for everyone who participated and the juniors thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Another success of the season was the womens team which played league matches in the Somerset Women's and Girls' competition. As the team was only formed in 2022 this was a great achievement, which was recognised at the club's Annual Dinner when members of the women's team received awards for their contribution to the club's success.
The club has fully implemented the ECB Safe Hands and ECB Anti-discrimination policies and the trustees thank those volunteers who helped with this.
Club membership continued to grow with over 50 senior members and 75 junior members together with parents and volunteers. The trustees are very grateful to all those who volunteered their assistance throughout the season.
After the end of the season the club started on substantial improvements to the pavilion. This will be completed before the start of the 2025 season and will make the facility a more welcoming environment.

In the event that a donation or grant is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
Recognition of expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be reliably measured.
Tangible Fixed Assets

Creditors
Liabilities and provisions are recognised as a result of an obligation to transfer economic benefits to a third party.Both are recognised once there is a present obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit in the form of cash will be required in settlement and the amount of settlement can be estimated reliably.
