Notes to the Financial Statements
Year ended 31 July 2026
1. General information
The company is a private company limited by guarantee without share capital, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is The Memorial Club House, Warwick Road, Knowle, Solihull, West Midlands, B93 9LW. The principal activity of the company during the year was that of a licensed club and operation of sports facilities.
2. Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3. Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Capital grants and donations
Deferred income included within creditors due after more than one year relates to grants received towards the extension of the property and the provision of the Astroturf facilities.
The grant income is recognised in the profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the period during which Sport England retains a legal interest in the land on which the Astroturf is situated, reflecting the period over which the conditions and obligations attaching to the funding continue to apply.
Disclosure exemptions
The entity satisfies the criteria of being a small entity as defined in FRS 102 and section 382 of the Companies Act 2006 and has taken advantage of the disclosure exemptions available under paragraph 1A.7 of FRS 102.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Revenue recognition
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, stated net of discounts and of Value Added Tax. Revenue is recognised when the goods and services have been provided to the buyer, the amount of revenue can be measured reliably, it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity, and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.
Income tax
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Mutual trade exemption is claimed on some of the taxable profits on the basis a mutual trade is carried out. The exemption is applied to expenses on a proportionate basis using turnover. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Tangible assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. Freehold property Freehold property is stated at cost less impairment. No depreciation is charged on the buildings as the directors consider that the residual value of the properties is at least equal to their carrying value and that any depreciation charge would be immaterial. The directors review the carrying value and residual value of the properties annually and consider that the expected residual value exceeds the carrying amount after taking into account the condition, location and ongoing maintenance of the properties.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Freehold property
-
2% straight line
Plant and machinery
-
10% straight line
Clubhouse Improvements
-
50 year term
Astroturf facility
-
15 year term
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stock to its present location and condition.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the entity has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the entity will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position and the amount of the provision as an expense. The maintenance of the astroturf facility used within the entity's trade, is included within provisions and is released on a straight line basis to the profit and loss account over 5 years in order to reflect the wear and tear of the facility annually.
Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.
4. Employee numbers
The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to 19 (2025: 19 ).
