|---|---|
12 weeks, for a 4 hours per week at peak times for crime and disorder. Both areas were targeted following requests by partners and residents due to community concerns. The Circuit area of Halfway, Cambuslang is an long established hot spot area regarding youth related crime, violence, disorder and gang related activities. MTGP has targeted the area on several occasions since it's inception in 2008 with significant outcomes achieved. A local youth group was formed following MTGP activity and this group (The Circuit Youth Group) received funding for MTGP to return to their area. MTGP activity proved highly successful with high attendance from the target group. The pitch area and skill zones became a local meeting place where barriers were broken down and new friendships made by young people and adults with numerous outcomes achieved.

Background
Although established as a SCIO since June 2015, Moving the Goalposts (MTGP) has been in operation since 2008 and predominately targets the most vulnerable and hard to reach communities and individuals within the South Lanarkshire area of Scotland. Through the use of highly specialist coaches, a portable football pitch and additional skill zones, MTGP provides a meeting place for attendees and the wider community at a time when offending and community need is at its most prominent.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 4
MTGP utilises football as a tool to allow specialist coaches to successfully engage with a wide range of young people including those who do not engage with other partners. MTGP activities are open to everyone and provided free of charge.
MTGP actively encourages and supports young people, parents and residents by re-building trust levels and providing much needed advice, support and mentoring. MTGP then ‘acts as a catalyst’ for partners to offer enhanced advice, support and suitable interventions for hard to reach individuals and their communities.
On average 40-45 young people participate at each event with an average of 67% being male and 33% female. A wide range of adults including parents, guardians, carers and residents regularly attended leading to increased levels of health and fitness and increased individual wellbeing and community spirit.
Parents often bring their children to new MTGP locations when it has left their area, helping to further break down long established barriers such as generational gang territoriality issues. Many attendees highlight that attending MTGP has assisted them to stop offending and make positive changes to their lifestyles. Former attendees often bring their young children to meet the coaches and take part when MTGP returns to their area.
MTGP activity reduces crime and antisocial behaviour whilst enhancing public reassurance and the fear of crime. Numerous positive and sustainable outcomes are regularly achieved to the direct benefit of the individuals and communities it targets. MTGP promotes community capacity building by providing 1-1 mentoring and supported access into education, training, employment and volunteering.
MTGP activities have led to significant, year upon year, reductions in violence, crime and anti-social behaviour. MTGP encourages the formation of new friendships leading to the elimination of negative historical barriers and reputations within the vulnerable and deprived communities it targets.
Performance Analysis
From MTGP’s inception in 2008, Police Scotland provided in-depth analysis of partner information to identify ‘hot spot areas’ within vulnerable communities throughout South Lanarkshire. This ensured that MTGP ‘targets the right areas at the right time’.
Analysis revealed that the optimum period to target each area is 12 weeks with additional weeks added where required. MTGP predominately operates from Thursday to Sunday, for 4 hours per night, from 6pm-10pm (identified as the peak periods for crime, violence and anti-social behaviour).
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 5
Police analysis was carried out a minimum of 12 weeks after MTGP has left an area to help identify what crime related outcomes were achieved as a direct result of MTGP activity and if these outcomes continued to provide benefit after MTGP has left the area.
Extensive evaluation is also carried out with attendees, parents and residents to ensure that MTGP continues to meet the needs and demands of the individuals and communities it targets. Personal testimonies along with individual and area case studies highlight the wide range of outcomes achieved.
Numerous adults also attend with the area surrounding the portable pitch becoming ‘a community hub’ where friendships are formed leading to difficult historical barriers being broken down.
Throughout the years, MTGP has been successful in assisting young people including gang members, parents and adults to gain nationally recognised football coaching qualifications. This allows attendees to better bond with their families, to become active community volunteers or seek paid employment as coaches. Many have become coaches with MTGP and its partners.
With the support of partners, numerous male and female attendees, parents and residents have joined or formed local football clubs and a wide range of other community groups. Several now volunteer as coaches in their communities. Local youth clubs have also been formed as a direct result of MTGP involvement.
Male and Female attendees have gone on to play football at a professional level and represent their country at various age levels. A former female attendee now plays professionally for Glasgow Rangers and is a regular full Scottish internationalist. Another attendee became the youngest ever female in Scotland to sign a professional contract on her 16[th] birthday.
Both girls began their football education with MTGP following difficulty finding access to football clubs and quality coaching for females. Their parents would then follow MTGP to new areas to continue their daughters’ footballing development. They still regularly attend MTGP and have become local celebrities and mentors to many of the attendees who wish to follow their example.
MTGP’s activities also play an important role in supporting partner activities and assisting strategic outcomes within South Lanarkshire including local Community Safety and Community Justice Strategies.
Crime Analysis
Police Scotland analysis proved an invaluable tool whilst also highlighting substantial year-upon-year reductions in violence, crime and anti-social behaviour as a direct result of MTGP activity. This was achieved despite the complex nature of the individuals and the communities MTGP targets.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 6
Long term analysis carried out from MTGP’s inception in 2007-8 until the end of 2018-19 when analysis ceased due to police operational demands revealed that as a direct result of MTGP activity, youth related crime and anti-social behaviour had been reduced by an annual average of - 60.4% over that 12 year period .
Further analysis of all crimes reported within a target area was later introduced and this revealed an annual average reduction of - 61.7% over a 6 year period. Analysis also revealed that these reductions continued long after MTGP left an area. Unfortunately, due to operational policing demands, this analytical service was no longer available after 2018-19.
Community Based Outcomes
MTGP actively promotes community capacity building long after it has left an area by providing continued support and advice, 1-1 mentoring and supported access into education, training, volunteering and employment opportunities.
Numerous attendees have joined a wide variety of clubs and local football teams or become active community volunteers or coaches. Several attendees have gone onto play football professionally in Scotland, England and abroad and also at international level.
With the help of MTGP and its partners, several attendees, parents and adults have successfully obtained Scottish Football Association (SFA) coaching qualifications. This allowed them to become coaches in their community or with MTGP and its partners. Several areas have formed their own male and female teams with volunteer coaches.
Parents and residents supported by MTGP have formed a wide variety of local community groups further enhancing community wellbeing. One such group was set up with the assistance of MTGP following a gang related murder and local community concerns regarding possible further acts of violence and retaliation. This group became a mainstay of the local community and was solely operated by volunteers with several weekly and annual community events held including a youth group with 125 attendees. A youth drama group was formed which has performed many sold out stage shows with its first being a drama about MTGP inspired by the attendees’ own experiences.
MTGP’s activities also play an important role in supporting several strategic outcomes within South Lanarkshire including the areas Community Safety and Community Justice Strategies.
Covid Pandemic
The worldwide Covid pandemic had an adverse effect on MTGP activities with Scotland subjected to long periods of social isolation followed by changing government restrictions. The trustees decided that no activity would take place
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 7
until it was as safe to do so and to not seek future funding until the pandemic had been successfully restrained. This resulted in a slow return to normal MTGP activity levels. With the onslaught of the new cost of living crisis, and diminishing funding streams, it has become more difficult for charities to gain new funding.
As a result, 2 communities were targeted throughout 2024-25. The Circuit area of Halfway, Cambuslang and Rigside near Lanark were targeted. The Circuit was targeted following concerns raised by partners and residents due to an excessive increase in violence and anti-social behaviour by young people in the area. Rigside in the Clydesdale area of South Lanarkshire was targeted following community and partner concerns regarding a lack of activities for young people in the area resulting in anti-social behaviour and an erosion of community wellbeing and spirit.
Summary of 2024-25 Activities
2 communities were targeted during 2024-25. Funding was received from HealthynHappy to tackle the Circuit area of Halfway, Cambuslang as part of the Scottish Governments ongoing support for vulnerable communities.
The Circuit area of Cambuslang has been a historical hot spot for anti-social behaviour and gang related violence, crime and disorder. MTGP has targeted the area on several occasions in the past with great success. A youth club run by volunteers was formed following MTGP activity and has proven highly successful. Concerns were raised by the group, residents and businesses regarding increased antisocial behaviour, disorder and gang related activity. They were successful in seeking funding to allow MTGP to return to the area.
Rigside is contained within the rural Clydesdale area of South Lanarkshire. The area suffers from being very rural with residents frequently having to travel to participate in activities which can be prove extremely difficult in today’s economic environment. Rigside Residents Association were successful in gaining funding for their area having seen what MTGP achieved in other areas.

Area of Concern
As a result of the ongoing cost of living crisis, MTGP observed that an increasing number of young people are displaying decreased levels of fitness and concentration levels and are unable to fully participate in MTGP activities.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 9
Following discussions with partners, some areas targeted by MTGP can be supported by local food banks and other organisations where available to provide free food to attendees whilst at MTGP. The Rigside area is one of the areas that are not covered by partners however funding was achieved to provide a food truck to be present when MTGP was operating. It is hoped that this service can continue after MTGP leaves the area.
The Circuit, Halfway Cambuslang
Over the past 20 years, Moving the Goalposts has built strong relationships within the Cambuslang community area. Recently, we delivered a diversionary project in The Circuit area of Halfway, Cambuslang deploying a portable football pitch and skill zones to engage young people and adults, encourage positive choices and positive alternatives to alcohol, drugs, gang related activities and antisocial behaviour.
Moving the Goalposts coaches have extensive experience in working with hard-toreach young people with several being former attendees They leverage longestablished trust and relationships to effectively engage with attendees, parents and residents.
MTGP partnered with a local community group, the Circuit Youth Club, which highlighted recent increases in violence involving young people from the area who were clashing with rival groups from nearby communities. Incidents also included property break-ins and damage. MTGP’s approach was focused on engaging these young people, helping them make better decisions, breaking down barriers and building positive connections with the community and its representatives.
MTGP operated for 12 weeks on a Friday evening from 6:00pm to 10:00pm, a peak time for offending and an ideal period for reaching at-risk young people. On the first night, MTGP encountered approximately 9 youths, aged 13–15 years, roaming the area armed with knives and other weapons. They appeared under the influence of drugs or alcohol. They stated that they were preparing for a violent confrontation with rivals from another that evening.
Through calm intervention, MTGP coaches de-escalated the situation resulting in this group remaining at the pitch and participating in activities. MTGP’s presence attracted other young people to also participate in activities with several community leaders and adults also attending. MTGP set up the portable pitch and skill zones adjacent to the Circuit Community Hall, enabling youth leaders from the Circuit Youth Club to introduce participants to the club and its activities.
Over the 12 week activity period, the coaches excelled in engaging not only hardto-reach young people but also other youths and adults, actively breaking down barriers and increasing wellbeing and community spirit. Attendance grew steadily, fostering new friendships and stronger community ties.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 10
"Moving the Goalposts is amazing. New friendships are forming between adults, families, and the young people because of the safe space provided by this project and its outstanding coaches. They mentor our young people like no one else. There's no other initiative that makes our communities feel safer. The coaches earn respect where others struggle, building relationships naturally through playing football, listening, and humour. The Circuit feels safer on these Friday nights. We wish it could run more often but we understand Tony and his team support other areas with similar challenges." Testimony from Adult 1
By week six, the situation had noticeably improved with a core group of 40 young people and 10–14 adults regularly attending. Reports of incidents in the area decreased. Word spread, drawing parents and children from nearby areas of Halfway and Westburn, leading to barriers being broken down and the positive mixing between communities that historically do not interact well.
One highlight was a visit from who both started their football journeys with Moving the Goalposts. They are now professional players in the Scottish Women's Premier League and have been capped for the Scotland women's national team. They actively inspire and encourage attendees to commit to making positive choices.
The project also boosted the membership of the Circuit Youth Club, with several participants making enquiries about their activities and joining the group.
Testimonies
The following is a sample of the many Testimonies received from attendees and adults: -
"I've had so much fun, laughed a lot, and made new friends. It's been amazing. We need this project more often as there's not much else to do here." Youth 1
"I've seen a big difference in my daughter. She's happier, has a new group of friends and her confidence is back. Before, she stayed indoors feeling unsafe. Now she's made good friends and I've also become friends with their parents too." This intervention demonstrated the transformative power of Moving the Goalposts in creating safer more connected communities through sport and mentorship”. Adult 2 (mother of Youth 1)
“Brilliant for the kids of all ages we really need more of this”. Adult 3
“Fantastic opportunity for the kids to mix together and have fun. Need to see Moving the Goalposts more often”. Adult 4
“I have loved the football and made new friends. Want this to stay as there's nothing to do here. Best night of the week”. Youth 2
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 11
“He has loved coming here. We need more of this. It’s giving the kids something to get them off the streets in a safe environment”. Youth 2’s mum
“Excellent for kids of all ages. It is safe and fun for them. Hope to see you again soon”. Adult 5
“Please don't go. We don't want you to go. We love being here. We can play football, have fun and be together and my mum and dad come to watch me score goals”. Youth 3
Rigside, Lanark
Over the past 20 years, Moving the Goalposts has continued to successfully engage with some of the most challenging and hard-to-reach individuals and communities across South Lanarkshire. The village of Rigside in the Clydesdale area proved no exception, presenting unique difficulties due to the close-knit nature of rural village life.
In Rigside, everyone knows everyone. This unfortunately amplified longstanding intergenerational family feuds. They involved not just individual households but extended further to include children, parents, aunts, uncles and grandparents. These long running conflicts often escalated from verbal abuse, to threats and physical violence.
During MTGP activity sessions the coaches frequently witnessed tensions and had to step in as mediators using de-escalation techniques or direct intervention to prevent harm and ensure safety. Drawing on two decades of street-level experience MTGP coaches managed these high-risk situations with skill and care.
Partners provided a food wagon supplying free food for all attendees ensuring everyone stayed nourished and hydrated throughout the activity sessions.
MTGP set up the portable football pitch and associated skill zones in a central area of the village. Activity took place on a Sunday for a 12 week period with sessions lasting a minimum of 4 hours.
On the very first day, turnout was exceptional with over 50 children and a large group of adults participating. However, at one point, MTGP had to intervene when 2 adults became verbally abusive and threatening towards each other, prompting their children to join in. The coaches swiftly applied proven de-escalation tactics to calm the adults and young people.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 12
To manage the large group effectively, MTGP divided participants into four age related categories:
5–7 years 8–12 years 13–15 years and 16+
This structure worked well, ensuring equal pitch time for each group. While others took part in the skill zones, visited the food wagon and stayed actively engaged.
Each week brought new challenges with varying levels of confrontation between different families. The coaches remained vigilant, diffusing situations as they arose. Despite ongoing tensions being the worst experienced in 20 years of MTGP activity, our experienced team of coaches handled each incident calmly and professionally throughout the 12 weeks, resulting in no adverse effects for the young people taking part.
Weekly attendance settled at an average of 42 young people and 14 adults. As the project progressed strong relationships developed between the coaches, young people, parents and residents. Respect for the coaches grew, and while underlying family rivalries persisted, participants agreed to set them aside for the benefit of the young people who would eagerly await the arrival of MTGP each Sunday and would remain fully engaged for the entire four hours.
On the final day, which coincided with Scotland's participation in the European Championships, MTGP with the help of residents and partners transformed the pitch and surrounding area into a festive celebration of the championship. The pitch and skill zones were decorated with bunting and Scottish flags with medals presented to all the young people and adults at the end of the event. Rigside Residents Association also provided custom-printed Scotland T-shirts for each participant. The event was a joyful, unifying finale, filled with music, food, laughter and smiles.
The coaches' expertise, foresight, and patience were crucial in managing weekly confrontations whilst delivering a safe space for all attendees. The project achieved outstanding success, fostering positive outcomes, increasing wellbeing and community spirit and a lasting feel-good factor in the Rigside area. The Resident’s Association has secured additional funding to allow MTGP to return the following year.
Testimonial s
The following is a sample of the many testimonies received whilst at Rigside.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 13
“Enjoyed it. Has been great fun and it was good to play against the boys”. Youth 1
"We don't know how you managed to keep the peace. You did it with patience, understanding and measured discipline. I can't thank you all enough. My boy can be a handful with his anger issues and you had to intervene a few times but mostly he listened and respected you. Thank you”. Adult 1
“This is my first football medal. It’s brilliant. Can’t wait to show my gran”. Youth 2
"What a great project. Can't believe you lasted 12 weeks. The last day was brilliant with music, flags, medals, and food. What a perfect ending with everyone smiling even the adults. Hope you're back soon." Adult 2
“Liked it when the coaches took part. Want Moving the Goalposts to come back soon”. Youth 3
“Can’t believe I got a medal. I attended every week and played football even though I hadn’t played before. It was fun especially because it was girls v boys in our game”. Youth 4
“I just enjoyed being here talking to the coaches and having a laugh with them. I will miss them. Sundays will be boring now with nothing to do”. Youth 5
"I can't believe how invested everyone became — kids participating, parents attending and even helping to build and dismantle the portable pitch. The final day felt like a real party, celebrating your good work and Scotland actually being at the Euros.” Adult 3
“The coaches made the pitch bigger to allow us older ones to enjoy it more”. Youth 6
“I didn’t want to play football with the others. I just ran about with a ball by myself. The coaches helped me with my dribbling through the cones”. Youth 7
Financial review
The Covid Pandemic and the Cost Of Living Crisis has had an adverse effect on the funding streams normally available to MTGP. Several have had their total funding frozen. This has had a knock on effect on MTGP activities during this reporting period. Trustees will actively look at new funding opportunities.
Income for the year was £12,000. No restricted funds will be carried forward with £1538 of unrestricted funds being carried forward to 2025-26.
Annual Report and Financial Statements: April 2024 - March 2025 14
Statement of the charity’s policy on reserves
The trustees consider the balance of unrestricted funds to be sufficient to carry forward to 2025-26 whilst they actively seek new funding streams for next year.

|Basis of independent|My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts|

|charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes|
|consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks|
|explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken|
|do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do|
|not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.|
