Chairman’s report.
Football teams, the first team had a fair season and finished mid table despite lacking a stable starting 11. The reserves have had a great season after jumping into the Sevenoaks league, they earned promotion and managed to play some entertaining football. Last season both teams won the Tunbridge wells charity cup, this season we won no trophies despite reaching two semi finals.
Cricket. First 11 won promotion from div 6 after a decent season coming second.
Juniors.
U16 not a great season. Played 20, won 1 game.
U13 mid table, played 8, won 3
U10 7 games and one cup final
U8’s two teams each played 6 games
Vetshad an improved season, won half their games under new management.
2ndXI crickethave started and have already won a game. Hope to have a good season, some concerns that we might be a struggle to get 22 each weekend, but so far so good. Possibility of getting in touch with Teston cricket club to help bolster the squad.
Treasurers report
Sporting income
Football match tax, up, because the reserves have played 12 more games than last year and the youngsters have been paying more.
German tour money is up a lot because of the extra games played.
Football fine money (for cautions) is up, and isn’t being recovered 100%
Overall sporting income is up
Non sporting income
Baino’s beer selling at cricket has generated income at very little effort.
Fireworks money was good this year!
Expenses

Sporting equipment is up even though no kit was bought, a lot more equipment was purchased.
Affiliation is up because the deposit on the sevenoaks league.
Training costs are up because Valley park forgot to invoice us for half of the previous season’s training until this year.
Ref fees are much higher, more games and the cost of referee fees in the sevenoaks league is higher by £5 per game.
Donations are up because we took longer to give out money after fireworks night.
One offs noted by Gary.
Net income is looking healthy.
Balance has gone up, well done.
Gary wants to set up a separate bank account to have an account for projects and for running the club costs which can be monitored seperately.

No change to yearly subscription proposed. And agreed upon.
No new officers elected.
No Vps to be dropped, and no new Vps elected.
