**Morden Little League 87 Ash Road Sutton Surrey SM3 9LA** 

## Morden Little League Football Annual Report for the year to 30 April 2020 

## **Constitution** 

Morden Little League is an unincorporated Association, is a Registered Charity (Number 803722) and its address is c/o 87 Ash Road, Sutton Surrey, SM3 9LA. 

The Charity is administered by a Management Committee elected from the volunteer members of the organisation. 

## **Aims and Objectives** 

Morden Little League (MLLF) once again met its primary objective of providing free organised football to boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 14 years. As in previous years the aim of mass participation rather than elitism and an emphasis on equalities and diversity were the guiding principles employed. 

## **Issues and Achievements** 

We have complied with FA and Little League requirements that now include the position of two League Welfare Officers. It has been a tough end to the season with the current Covid19 pandemic. We had to cancel the end of the season which had an effect of income from pervious years. Moving into the following season we hope to be able to provide free football when restrictions are lifted. 

The league enters its 53[rd] season we still have the challenges with the local council no longer providing use of the ground free of charge. Fundraising has had to be stepped up to try and cover the £5000 but the members have stepped up to the challenge.  The management committee will be doing everything in its power to keep this free football going for as long as possible without endangering the leagues survival. 

I would like to thank all those that donate their time to voluntary roles with Morden Little League, past and present, and to the boys and girls who make it all worthwhile. 

Overall, over 670 children and over 140 volunteers participated in the Morden Little League Football over 30 weeks, playing around 400 hours of organised football. 

Yours Faithfully 

Shaun Connolly League Secretary Morden Little League
