Objectives and activities
The objective of the Charity is to provide quality, voluntary, professional football coaching for
children of all ages from 5 to senior levels. Rossglass County FC develops players in a positive,
development-based environment. The scope of Rossglass County FC provides players the best
opportunity to develop as footballers and as people. During the year the club provided weekly
football coaching sessions to all age groups along with providing the opportunity to participate in
competitive football tournaments in furtherance of the above objective.
Public benefit statement
In setting our objectives and planning our activities for the year the trustees have given careful
consideration to the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland's guidance on public benefit to
ensure that the activities have helped to achieve the charity's purposes and provide a benefit to
the beneficiaries,
Achievements and performance
Rossglass County Football club had approximately 150 members during the year.
First Kickers - aged 5-6, participated in training each week at Bright Community Hall and friendly
games were organised against olher local teams every month to give the children experience of
playing against other teams in a safe and fun environment. Our Under 8 & Under 10 teams
participated in 7 aside matches at the Small Sided Games at St. Patricks Grammar School every
Sunday Monday. The children also trained once a week at the same location. Our under 12 & 14
teams competed in the Downpatrick Youth League on Saturday mornings. The Under 12 League
was classed as developmental, g aside and was non-competitive. The Under 14 team played
competitively in a league format. Both teams competed in Cup competitions. The Under 16 team
joined the Lisburn League for the first tirne and were highly competitive corning second in the
League and being narrowly defeated in the semi-finals of the cup competition. Three members of
the Under 16 squad were chosen to represent the League at the Foyle Cup Tournament.
The club has two senior football teams. The 'Firsts" play in the Premier Division of the Newcastle
League while our 'Seconds' play in Division 2 of the same League. It was a disappointing season
for the Firsts finishing bottom of the table, However, the club were not relegated to the first division
by the Newcastle League and will continue to compete in the Premier division next season. The
senior manager Oliver Burke resigned in June 2023.

Trustees Annual Report
Year Ended 30 June 2023
The club secured a £500 grant from the Barclays Football Community Fund and organised various
fundraising activities from 'Last Man Standing" Take Your Pick" and "Bonus Ball" competitions.
Financial review
The results for the year are set out in detail on pages 6 to 11. The club had a net deficit in the year
of £2,393. At 30 June 2023. the tolal funds of the charity amounted to £237 comprising of
restricted funds of £500 and unrestricted funds of (£263). Our aim as a club is not to exist for the
primary purpose of making a profit but to further the interest of our members and local community.
Any retained reserves will ultimately be invested back into the club for the benefit of the members
or donated to other charitable organisations to benefit the local community.
Reserves policy
Sound financial control and a robust policy of charging sensible membership, players dues,
football gear and gate receipts rates for the use of the facilities ensure we have healthy reserves to
ensure we cope with any unforeseen costs that may arise.
Plans for future periods
To appoint a new First Team Coach for the coming season. To move match fees and training fees
away from coaches collecting cash to a more sustainable monthly payment scheme. To ensure all
coaches have their Access Nl checks up to date and a new safeguarding course to be completed
before the start of the new season. To renew the Service Level Agreement we have with Newry
Mourne & Down District Council for Senior home games to be provided at Dunleath Playing fields
in Downpatrick. To organise a fundraising Golf Toumament to supplement Income. To investigate
the possibility of acquiring land on a long-term lease to create a home pitch in the
BallynoelRossglass area for our members.
Structure, governance and management
Rossglass County Football Club is run by 4 trustees which is small but well balanced and has
served us well. Many hours are given free of charge to ensure the smooth running of the club and
we are committed to providing facilities for and to promote participation in the amateur sport of
football in the Downpatrick area and its environs in Co Down.
