• Please check the County web site for information www.westridingfa.com

• Some past events have been around pre season training, 11 v 11 attacking forms of play. They are presented by very experienced coaches, and ideas are always to be gained from these events.

Child Protection Policy

Greetland Goldstars Junior Football Club aims to provide the safest environment possible for all children who train and play for the club. The safety and well being of any child that we come in contact with is our first priority. The club adheres to

the Football Association guidelines on all matters concerning child protection and all Managers, Coaches and Assistants are certified and registered with the West

Riding F.A to ensure their suitability to supervise children.

Football Association quote ‘Non action is not an option’

Stuart Blagbrough is the clubs Child Welfare OfficerTel No 01422 379539, mobile 07832 232496, e-mail

[email protected]

All coaches, assistants and managers must have an up to date CRB cardCRB applications can be completed on line (details on the clubs web site under

managers page)

The club is looking to set up a Youth Committee (Under 13’s upwards) so that players can re represented at the club meetings and would also like to get

together about 15 players, as the WRCFA will run a free Junior Youth Leaders course for the club.(this will count towards DoE and help with school studies,

Stuart is leading this).

FA Charter Standard

As a Charter Standard Club we always need topresent ourselves in a professional and well run manner, which means all

members of Greetland Goldstars behaving responsibly both on and off the field. Remember that you are representing the club and the FA may be watching

YOUThe club motto is “To win fairly and lose with honour”

The club is working towards gaining the FA “Community Standard” award, but

needs girls teams. WRCFA will be working with us next year to run after school sessions for girls, so that we can start some teams up and thus gain our

standard.

FA Respect

Respect is the collective responsibility of everyone involved in football to create a fair, safe and enjoyable environment in which the game can take place.

• Respect club Codes of Conduct

• Designated Spectator Areas (barrier in container, should we buy another??)

• Captain taking responsibility

• Referee managing the game

In The FA’s annual Grassroots Survey 56 per cent of respondents reported that their experience of the game had improved as a result of measures introduced through the Respect programme - up from 40 per cent.

Funds and Fundraising

The club will cover the following costs• Pitch hire• Winter training (to the value of £35 per week)• Footballs (match and training) • Referee fees (for teams using external/league-provided referees on a

weekly basis)• CRB checks for all managers, coaches and assistants• FA Courses for managers, coaches and helpers: Level 1 and modules for

First Aid, Safeguarding Children (child protection/welfare) and Football For All (equality)

• Training and match equipment (stored in the club container) • Mini soccer goals (including repairs and new purchases)• Netting for full size goals/ground pegs• Presentation night trophies


As a team manager/coach, you should be aware that your team will need to source funds for the following:

• Playing strip (including goalkeeper kit)• Training wear (including shower jackets, tracksuits, sweat tops etc.)• Trips away• Tournaments (the club will pay for one per season)

Funds and FundraisingImportant information regarding club finances

• The club’s main sources of income are 1) subscriptions and 2) fundraising• The club is an unsustainable entity in a period where costs rise annually,

fundraising remains “unsupported” and external support sources are decreasing…IF things stay as they are.

• In 2012-13, the club introduced a new fundraising strategy; whilst some parts worked well, some didn’t and support for events actually decreased last season despite making a club record amount.

• Despite fundraising contributing around £9,000 last season, this was an exception, not the rule, in comparison to a ‘typical’ season.

• Last season’s fundraising could be seen as extraordinary but without the Sportsman’s Dinner we’d have generated a typical amount and more than likely would have faced a deficit in funds.


What we’re doing to further ‘safeguard’ the club’s future…• Increase in subscription fees. Some subs still owing from last season.• Pushing through with plans for the long-term ‘lease’ of Goldfields.• Slight rethink on fundraising to increase flexibility etc. • Continuation of sourcing external, club-wide sponsorship and other income

streams such as funding programmes (e.g. McDonalds Kickstart).

As a manager/coach, remember:• We need to support the club as well as your team! Ensure subs are collected

on time, market social/fundraising events in your team etc.• Almost everything the club uses has a cost. There’s no ‘endless’ cash

reserves and financing must come from somewhere.• This isn’t a money or profit making exercise. The money generated over the

season goes on ensuring our boys and girls have…

the best possible experience in junior football at a fantastic club!

from site.

• Please use the metal hoops only for the Mini soccer goals (7 per goal)

• Put all parts back in the mini soccer bags and do not drag them across the ground (2 man carry if possible).

• Make sure 11 aside pegs are put back in the net bags. (can anyone purchase some of them)

• Make sure all equipment is put back in the container in the correct place and not just thrown into the container.

• All broken or missing equipment should be reported to either John King or a member of the committee.
