## **Objectives and activities**
The object of the charity is the provision and maintenance of a recreation ground and facilities ancillary thereto for the use of the inhabitants of the town of Watton and the surrounding area without distinction of political, religious or other opinions, with the object of improving the conditions of like for said inhabitants.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. They confirm that in planning and carrying out the charity's activities they have had regard to this guidance.
## **Achievements and performance**
This year has seen a return to normality with the Centre seeing more footfall similar to pre-Covid levels. The Social Club has benefitted significantly from the return of the full sporting calendar with football, rugby, boxing, cricket, and the tennis attracting users to the Centre to watch various sporting activities. The Centre has seen a busier summer period than usual, hosting of a junior football tournament as well as a hockey event which attracted people from all around the County. The Centre has also capitalised on designating a Committee lead on events, tasked with promoting regular events. Themed events such as drag bingos, halloween discos, children discos, casino nights and many more.
The Centre has received funding of £107,587 for the skate park project from Breckland District Council. This is currently ringfenced for the purpose of a long awaited skatepark in the town. This would provide alternative recreational output for young people in the town. The trustees are reviewing construction of the skate park and assessing the schedule suitable for completion. The Centre also received £36,147 from the Market Town Initiative Project. This was used to renovate the astroturf lights, resurface the carparks and repair the bowls club fence.
The Charity is constantly reviewing it's costs and a constant review of our suppliers is an ongoing process. Investment has been made into the maintenance of the football playing fields with the appointment of designated grounds staff as well as investment into equipment which includes a new hired tractor. Further investment has also been made with repairs to ensure electrical compliance now completed. The main football changing rooms have also been renovated with new shower systems with the hope to to provide the teams with a better facility.
The presence of the Men's Shed within the Centre has continued to prove beneficial with the group recently voted amongst the best in the Country. They continue to support the Charity with odd repairs around the Centre. The Men's shed also donated £300 to the Charity. The Charity has provided to be a continued hubs for initiatives which support the people of Watton, which includes hosting the weekly ladies', Active Norfolk supported men's football to provide support for men's mental wellbeing and a a weekly mental health workshop "Watton Worry Well", where residents have walk-in access to mental health practitioners.
The overall outlook of the committee is that we are making progress towards generating more funds compared to last year, however the continuously high cost of maintaining an ageing building, rising utilities costs and staff costs is making running the Charity challenging. The Charity is very conscious of the challenges ahead to keep the Charity sustainable. We have started exploring options of working with local stakeholders such as Breckland Council and our affiliated clubs on additional external investments such as fundraisers and grants.

**Trustees' annual report** _**(continued)**_
## **Year ended 31 March 2023**
## **Financial review**
The total income amounted to £270,424 (2022: £102,756) and after expenditure of £228,732 (2022: £108,363) the net surplus for the year was £41,692 (2022: deficit £5,607). Included within the above surplus are restricted funds of £108,707.
The Trustees consider the year end position to be satisfactory and are working hard to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
## **Reserves policy**
The Charity has no free reserves at 31 March 2023, with net current liabilities in unrestricted funds of £46,735 (2022: £23,910 free reserves). The Charity also held restricted funds of £108,707 (2022: £3,209) at the year end. It is therefore the Trustees' intention to rebuild reserves in the coming year in order to establish a sink fund and to meet future maintenance costs.
The Charity has a target reserves figure of £300,000, with the reserves to be used for the resurfacing of the Astroturf.
## **Plans for future periods**
Over the next 12 months, we have outlined a clear events timeline to generate additional revenue into the Centre. The Charity will continue to look for funding for the replacement of the astro turf surface and also look to increase sporting revenue. We also want to continue to host events for the Town to increase footfall and attract new users to the Centre.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Watton Sports Association**
## **Year ended 31 March 2023**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet and the related notes.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination.
I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
3. the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a "true and fair" view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Watton Sports Association** _**(continued)**_
## **Year ended 31 March 2023**
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) in accordance with 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 (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn. I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

## **Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
