Purpose
The Surrey County FA purpose is to lead the development of grassroots football in Surrey ensuring participation and enjoyment of football by everyone.
The consultation has distilled all the challenges into four strategic goals and three key enablers we need to address over the next four years:
Goals
Growth and Retention – sustaining and increasing the number of players
Raising Standards and addressing abusive behaviour – creating a safe and positive environment
Developing Better Players – focusing on the 5-11 age group
Running the game effectively – leading and governing the game
Key Enablers
A skilled workforce – recruiting and developing a highly skilled, diverse, paid and voluntary workforce
Improved facilities – improving the access and quality of training and playing facilities
Marketing and PR – clear communications to everyone involved in the game
What will the strategy deliver by 2012?
The following are the headline targets:
Sustaining 3170 and creating 110 new teams
Sustaining 795 and recruiting 240 new referees
A Level 1 coach with every registered youth team
65% of all youth teams will have The FA Charter Standard Award
£12 million investment in to new facilities
75% of County Stakeholders agree that the CFA/The FA are leading the game effectively
Everyone in roles with children in youth football or working with vulnerable adults to have an enhanced CRB check
A successful Respect campaign
