FA CHARTER STANDARD CLUBS HANDBOOK 08-09 EAST RIDING COUNTY FA DEVELOPING FOOTBALL FOR EVERYONE East Riding County FA Roy West Centre Inglemire Lane Hull HU6 7TS
WELCOME WELCOME & INTRODUCTION The FA Charter Standard Club Award is a core component of the FA Football Development programme. By Achieving the award your club has shown a commitment to improving the playing experience for all by adhering to minimum standards for football through coaching, child protection and administration. It is vital that the ethos of The Charter Standard award is actively promoted at all times to all of your team managers, players and to the many additional people who attend games and ultimately represent your club. FA Charter Standard Clubs also have a responsibility to ensure that when incidents of poor practice occur they take the most appropriate action in line with their own codes of conduct. We have also worked hard to ensure that our benefits package reflects the value placed on the award at both national and regional level. The benefits package ranges from a reduction in coach education courses, membership to the East Yorkshire Football Coaches Association and access to in service training to support in obtaining grants via the Football Foundation. Perhaps though the greatest benefit is the knowledge that your club is helping to ensure that thousands of players across the county are able to enjoy our great game. The FA National Game strategy sets clear targets as to the number of youth teams playing under a Charter Standard banner as this clearly is the most appropriate place for young players to enjoy their football experience. The East Riding County FA recognise the amount of work and dedication it takes to run a successful FA Charter Standard Club. We hope everyone associated with your club feels proud to be a part of the FA Charter Standard family and as always if you would like any additional support please do not hesitate to contact us.

FA Charter Standard Renewals The FA Charter Standard Award is valid for a three year period, after this time clubs are requested to submit a renewal form to the CFA in order to maintain the award. In contrast to some initial applications the renewal document asks for expiry dates of Child Protection Certificates and Emergency Aid Certificates. This has proved to be the most difficult area for clubs with many coaches needing to be booked onto additional workshops. We would advise all clubs to be aware of when their CS status is due for renewal and to maintain an up to date list of coaching qualifications and expiry dates to ease the workload at renewal time. NB. CS is a condition of entry into the Hull Boys Sunday League from season 2009-2010, please ensure you are in a position to renew with all the associated information.
