We have pitches for cricket and football, and a new Multi Use Games Area with tennis courts, netball courts, a basketball court and a five-a-side football pitch. We also provide on our site a children’s playground as well as informal recreational space. There are three changing rooms and a function room /kitchen and toilets in the new building. The Community Centre is open to all residents of the civil parish of Kirkby Ireleth, and is well used by residents and visitors alike. The village school uses our facilities for PE lessons and their annual Sports Day, and the tennis club organises coaching in the holidays with an LTA coach. 

These facilities will widen participation by extending the offer of the centre for wider community and recreational use and improve health and well-being as well as facilitating community cohesion. 

We have had a large fundraising exercise to allow us to achieve our project to refurbish / replace the main building. This has been very successful and the project has been completed during 2020

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

During the period of closure, the Committee devised a Covid risk assessment and a set of restrictions relating to Covid security. The content of these documents was informed by Government guidelines and advice issued by ACRE and ACT. 

The hall opened for users September2020.  Our first users were exercise groups- Pilates, Karate and yoga. The Ladies Guild, Supper Club and Art and History Groups did not meet because of the vulnerability of members to COVID. 

Cricket and football continued following national guidance.  The Centre followed National guidance closing on 5th November 2020, reopening on  2[nd] December then closing again on 6[th] January 2021.  On 29[th] March outdoor and indoor exercise classes could start, - pilates and karate classes resumed but restrictions meant that the annual Gala did not go ahead and we were unable to hold our planned re-opening following refurbishment. BOFRA fell races took place, with a number of competitors camping overnight.  Tennis coaching was organised for children and adults during the summer.  The netball group continued. 

A village event was planned for September but rising numbers of infection locally resulted in postponement to summer 2022. 

April 2021 indoor exercise classes resumed with pilates and karate. 

In September 2021- the ladies guild, Supper Club returned and art group met once more observing social distancing, using sanitiser and we welcomed Little Acorns, (Mother and Toddler Group) which met weekly during term time. 

Cricket, Football, Bowling and tennis were able to continue when permitted following National Guidance.  The outdoor area is in good order thanks to the hardworking members of the cricket ,football and bowling groups and the work of our Chairman. 

Financially, we are in a strong position, thanks to Retail, Hospitality and Leisure Grants, which enabled the treasurer to waive fees from the sports clubs for 2020-2021. 

We will continue to improve facilities inside the building for all users, and develop a pump track for young cyclists. 

Our committee meetings have been online via zoom.
