APPENDIX 1 Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements
of the charity during the financial
period

DUSC have mainly provided a football service to 22-24 Teams over the
year, this includes providing opportunities for children and adults, male
and female to play sport. We deliver to around 700 children per week
and have 102 volunteers delivering these sessions. We have recruited
an additional 20 volunteers to continue to grow the club and meet the
community needs. We have also successfully recruited additional
employees and now have 8 members of staff working on community
initiatives.
We continue to work closely with SFA, Craigie High School, Rowantree
Primary School, Leisure and Culture Dundee, East Youth Team,
Rocksolid and Dundee & Angus College to develop young volunteers to
become young coaches in the club and in the local community.

Financial review

Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves Details of any deficit Donated facilities and services (if any)	We have been accruing funds over a number of years to accommodate the employment of a few posts and future posts at the club to cope with its growth. The club continues to look at maintaining a small general (unrestricted) reserve to act as a cushion against unexpected or emergency costs, the growth in the club and the more community services we provide without any income.
	DUSC had a small deficit this year £8,981. This was due to a slight change in the way Extra time funding was being allocated, changed to quarterly in arrears.
	DUSC is grateful for the continued support from Craigie Community Sports Hub for accessing their facilities to train and operate our services. We are also grateful for the continued support from Scottish Football Association, Scottish Government, Leisure and Culture Dundee, Craigie High School, Rowantree Primary School and St Pius RC Primary School

APPENDIX 1 Other optional information
