Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	2024 was a year of challenges for Llechryd Cricket & Tennis Club, as exceptionally wet weather put the ongoing major groundworks at the CIO's sports ground way behind schedule. Consequently there wasn’t any playing of either cricket or football at the Castell Malgwyn ground in 2024 & that had a major impact on fundraising. However, despite all the setbacks & having to play all games away from the ground, the community spirit prevailed & all of the numerous cricket & football teams fulfilled their playing commitments. Membership & sports participation increased across all sections during 2024.
