2010 Cup Final Programme
This year the Cup Finals are to be held at the Reebok Stadium, the home ground of Bolton Wanderers Football Club on the Saturday 15th May 2010, for the 7 v 7 and 9 v 9 formats.
At the Bolton Wanderers Academy ground on the 10th April and the 17th April 2010 for 6 of our 11 v 11 teams, and at Ladybridge Football Club on the 22nd May 2010 for the remaining teams.
We would like to show our appreciation to Bolton Wanderers and to Ladybridge FC for being our host’s for these wonderful events.
We tried our very best to ensure all matches were played at either the Reebok Stadium, or the Academy, but unforunately due to the adverse weather recently, even the Academy has been hit hard and as such are behind with their fixtures and also need to have some maintenance work carried out once the season concludes.
As a result we have had no option but to bring some of our finals forward to April.
We do hope you understand how much hard work and effort Bolton Wanderers, in particular John Howarth and Jimmy Phillips have put into this to ensure the vast majority of matches are covered at BWFC facilities and once again we would like to thank them.

Respect Barriers and Tape
Last season the league purchased 70 sets of respect barriers and tape and distributed them to member clubs.
This was a one off gesture by the committee, to ensure that the respect programme got off the ground immediately in this league.
It is a league and FA rule that respect barriers and dedicated spectator areas are in place.
Any teams that do not comply with this requirement MUST be reported to the discipline secretary for action to be taken.
Please note if you wish to purchase the official barriers and tape please visit
Prices range from £50.00 + VAT and carriage for one mini soccer pitch to £140.00 +VAT and carriage for a full size pitch. (Please note this only caters for one side of the pitch!)
If you wish to purchase the same items as distributed by the league at greatly reduced costs then we recommend you visit. (Please note one set is sufficient for 2 sides of a full size pitch)
20 x 3ft white posts £24.00
Rope can then be sought locally or bought from:
220 metres of 6mm poly rope £7.92 +VAT

Club Welfare Officers - Affiliation Requirements for the 2010/11 Season
As you will be aware, in order for a club which runs Youth teams aged Under-18 and below to affiliate, it is mandatory requirement that the club has a nominated Club Welfare Officer. For the 2010/11 season, the Club Welfare Officer must meet the following criteria:
a) Hold an F.A. Enhanced C.R.B. check
b) Have completed an F.A. Safeguarding Children Workshop (formally known as Child protection and best practice)
c) Have completed an F.A. Welfare Officer Workshop (WOW)
Your current Club Welfare Officer should already have completed parts (a) & (b). Part (c) is a new mandatory requirement for the 2010/11 season. You will need to check now that your Club Welfare Officer has either already completed, or has been booked onto a forthcoming F.A. Welfare Officer Workshop (WOW).
If your club has changed its Club Welfare Officer during the course of the season, then you must check that the new individual satisfies all three of the above criteria.
If your current Club Welfare Officer is stepping down at the end of the season, then it is important that your club committee acts now to identify a new Club Welfare Officer and assess if they meet the above stated requirements.
If your Club Welfare Officer for next season does not have an accepted FA CRB and/or needs to attend one or both of the workshops it is imperative that these matters are attended to now. The Lancashire F.A. will begin processing affiliations for next season from March 31st 2010, and we will be unable to process your affiliation until your Club Welfare Officer meets all three of the above criteria. Please find attached details of the forthcoming course dates. If you wish to book onto one of these you do so by either using the online booking system, www.LancashireFA.com/development and clicking on the ‘Event/Courses Book Online’ tab, or by contacting Justyna Demuth, Lancashire FA, Course Administrator directly on 01772 624000 ext 117.
Demand for both Safeguarding Children Workshops and Welfare Officer Workshops will increase as we approach the affiliation window, so to guarantee a place on a convenient workshop you need to book a place as soon as possible. If you require any further support or have a query regarding this letter please do not hesitate to contact the Lancashire F.A. County Welfare Officers, David Woodfine or Neil Yates by telephone on 01772 624000 or via email to CountyWO@LancashireFA.Com
Yours sincerely,
D Woodfine

Bolton Bury and District Junior Football League sets the standard
The league committee are delighted to announce the first ever league to attain Charter Standard League Status in Lancashire is the BBDJFL.
Warren Barlow , Chairman of the BBDJFL said. “We are delighted to receive the FA Charter Standard League award. It is even more satisfying as we are the first ever league in Lancashire to achieve this award and extremely fulfilling considering we are also the largest, fastest growing league in the region, with more clubs, players, referees and coaches wanting to join our league year in year out.”
“All this done on the backdrop of the only league in the Country that has never issued fines, to any member of our league, as we have a strict no fines policy. We believe fining grassroots clubs serves no purpose whatsoever and in fact removes finances from clubs, many of which, are struggling to make ends meet to provide a service for the youth in the region.”
“Instead we prefer to create the right atmosphere for good behaviour, raising standards through advice and encouragement and if teams or clubs do not come up to the required standard they may be refused entry into our league in subsequent seasons. We have found that this stance has ensured that the behaviour in our league is at a good standard and as a result the enjoyment for the youngsters playing the game is increased.”
“A big thank you must go to our committee members and member clubs who have worked hard over a number of seasons to attain this high standard whilst moving forward with the growth and development programme to increase participation in this region.”

Photograph Guidance
Please see the attached guidance which is provided by the Football Association
http://www.bbdjfl.org/admin/documents/CelebratingFootballThroughPhotographsandVideo2.pdf
To summarise there is NOTHING wrong with taking photographs at sporting events and in fact if you think foul play is at hand you should report it to the Police.
The only place a person can be prevented from taking photographs is on PRIVATE land were the owner has decreed that they will not allow the taking of photographs and this action is CLEARLY displayed
