Chairperson

As the ultimate leader of the club the chairperson is a figurehead in the football and wider community, representing the club with integrity and vision. The chairperson has to be able to inspire confidence in the leadership of the club, and be able to particularly lead the club committee on whose shoulders rest the vast bulk of the week to week club responsibilities. The chairperson also needs to be a diplomat, able to resolve conflicts in the club and able to deal with any external issues as well.

 

Treasurer

The main job of the treasurer is to understand and control the flow of money in and out of the club. The treasurer keeps up-to-date and accurate records of income and expenditure through the use of cloud-based accounting software and integrated bank feeds. The Income Statement and Balance Sheet are presented at the AGM.

Club Secretary

The club secretary is one of the most important roles in any club. They are the person who deals with the finer details so everyone else is free to focus on playing football. The secretary is the main point of contact for the County FA, league, team managers and other clubs. The secretary is the person who oversees and carries out the football administration duties of their football club. It is a vital role in ensuring that your grassroots football club is able to play official league matches with registered players.

Club Welfare Officer

Across grassroots football there is a network of around 8,500 Welfare Officers who support safe and fun environments for everyone. Your club’s welfare officer is concerned with putting safeguards into place for all activities. The whole committee are supporting these efforts but the Welfare Officer needs to ensure that all officials are clear about their own responsibilities.
