FA Guide to Club Structures
A 2015 version of the Guide to Club Structures (below) has recently been published to support clubs in understanding the various legal structures available for clubs, the positives and negatives of each structure and how they can best protect their volunteer administrators, members and assets. The guide also explores how clubs can become more tax efficient, access gift aid and includes the latest Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) 2015 legislation to support existing CASCs and those wishing to apply.
The guide is also available online via http://www.thefa.com/my-football/community/fa-charter-standard-programme
National League System and FA Charter Standard clubs and leagues can access free legal help on the Helpline 0191 211 7799 if they wish to discuss the matter further.
