| Report of the Trustees |
| for the Year Ended 31 May 2023 |
| The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 May 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). |
| OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES |
| Objectives and aims |
| The objective of the charity is to deliver a state of the art sports facility in the Culter area, for the benefit of local youth and adult amateur sports teams within the community. The relocation of Culter Youth Football Club and the creation of new purpose-built facilities will help to meet the growing demand for facilities by the club and the ever-increasing demand for 'all-weather' surfaces in the City and will improve accessibility to sport. |
| ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
| Review of activities |
| The Crombie training facility continues to be well used by the members of CYFC during the financial period and is utilised for both training and matches for our younger CYFC age groups. |
| Due to the ever increasing numbers in the club and lack of outdoor training and match facilities we approached Albyn School to see if they would be interested in leasing their Milltimber Playing Fields facility to CYFC. Discussions went well and the club entered into a lease agreement with Albyn School to use their 7 a side and 11 a side pitches and pavilion building for the 2022/23 season. |
| This arrangement has worked well and has been agreed to continue going forward for the 2023/24 season also. |
| Albyn School are keen to improve this Milltimber facility and we have discussed a potential partnership with CYFC that may open up additional funding streams to help upgrade the facility on a community partnership basis. One of these funding streams being our Crombie facility should it be developed and we are also looking at other community grant schemes, lottery funding etc. |
| Talks have not yet progressed further with Albyn School however we hope to see some progress on this going forward. In the meantime we are still looking for other potential sites for relocating our Crombie facility should the development of our land go ahead. |
| Planning |
| The developer who CASTLE have an option agreement with, Gordon Investments Corporation Limited (GICL), have managed to get planning in principle consent for 44 homes at Crombie and they are aiming to get consent for a second phase, roughly the same numbers again. |
| There is no real developer interest at present but most larger developers will only be interested in sites 75+ which is why GICL are pursuing a larger number units. |
| CASTLE's option with GICL expired on 28 February 2023 and CASTLE's directors and the CYFC Chairman, Craig Ross, agreed to extend this option for a further 5 years on the same terms but with a £10k option extension fee, payable at the same time as the "initial land payment". |
| This 5 year option extension was agreed and signed off on 9 May 2023 therefore the new option longstop date between CASTLE and GICL is now 28 February 2028. |
| FINANCIAL REVIEW |
| Financial position |
| The net deficit for the year ended 31 May 2023 was £740 (2022 - £875). No income was received other than a small amount of bank interest. |
| Reserves policy |
| At 31 May 2023 a balance of £13,199 reserves were retained (31/05/22 - £13,939) for use in future activities. The nature of the activities of the charity does not require a high level of reserves for continued operation. |

| Approved by order of the board of trustees on |
| Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of |
| Culter Amateur Sports (Training, Leisure |
| and Education) Limited |
| I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 May 2023 set out on pages four to nine. |
| Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner |
| The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. |
| Basis of the independent examiner's report |
| My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the 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 seeking explanations from you as 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. |
| Independent examiner's statement |
| In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention : |
| (1) | which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements |
| - | to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and |
| - | to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations |
| have not been met; or |
| (2) | to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. |
