football, tennis etc even indoor sports such as badminton, archery, wrestling, swimming etc. All of these sports have a large wide spread and India represents globally through these sports. The reason for a such a wide spread being the opportunities and provisions for the people to get into these sports along with its awareness and importance which encourages the people of the country to participate in these events. Hockey being the national sport of India was extremely popular at a time. There was extensive participation in this sport and it was a huge success. India has won 8 Olympic medals in hockey till date. However, over a period of time this sport has lost its charm within the people of the country. The main reason being the poor provisions and no fortifications for this adrift sport. There are a very few hockey academies or sports academy which focuses on this peculiar sport in the country. Thus, even for the people who might be intrigued in this sport do not have much opportunities to actually get into this sport at a professional level. Thus, the project focuses on building a hockey academy of considering the national/ international game required standards for this sport and to encourage the youth to participate in this national sport and get its significance back into our country.

02 EVOLUTION OF HOCKEY

11

ORIGIN

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

Historically speaking, the origin of hockey can be traced back to 4000 years ago in Egypt. Historians point out that a crude form of the game involving sticks and a ball. Similar shreds of evidence have been found in Ethiopia around 1,000 BC and in Iran in around 2,000BC. The sport also closely resembled the modern Gaelic sport of hurling dating back nearly 3,000 years to the Greek classical era making it one of the oldest team sports in the world.

The modern name “field hockey” first appeared in England in the 14th century when King Edward III issued a proclamation outlawing the practice of leisure sports by the working class. After lying dormant in England for the next several centuries, field hockey re-emerged in the post-Elizabethan British Empire and began working its way into English public schools in the 18th century. When the British Empire expanded its borders around the globe in the 1800s, the British Army brought the game of field hockey with them, expanding the sport’s practice to the point where it is now one of the most popular sports in the world. Field hockey reached its modern form in the 19th century as a game played between two teams of eleven players each. Blackheath HC (Hockey club) was founded in London in 1849 as the first professional field hockey club, but the game truly reached its modern form a few years later when Teddington HC introduced the striking circle and changed the official ball to a sphere as opposed to a rubber cube. The first Hockey Association was formed in the UK in 1876 and drew up the first formal set of rules. The original association survived for just six years but, in 1886, it was revived by nine founding member clubs. The sport went mainstream after the inaugural of Olympic Hockey Competition for men was held in London in 1908 with England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales competing separately. With the addition of Germany and France, the competition ran with six teams. After having made its first appearance at the London Games, hockey was subsequently dropped from the 1912 Stockholm Games after host nations were granted control over ‘optional sports’. It reappeared in 1920 in Antwerp after pressure from

EVOLUTION OF HOCKEY |12

Belgian hockey advocates before being omitted again in Paris in 1924. The formation of the International Hockey Federation in 1924 was not soon enough for the Paris Olympics but it did grant hockey re-entry in Amsterdam in 1928. Hockey has been on the programme ever since, with women’s hockey included for the first time in Moscow in 1980. Motivated by hockey’s omission from the 1924 Paris Games, the Fédération Internationale de Hockey sur Gazon (FIH) was founded by Paul Léautey. M. Léautey, who would later become the first president of the FIH, called together seven National Federations to form the sport’s international governing body which exists as the governing body for all international field hockey to this day.

Hockey experienced its greatest level of success in British colonial India, where Calcutta HC was founded as the first professional field hockey club outside of England in 1885. The sport continued to grow at a blistering pace in India throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, and when field hockey was reinstated as an Olympic sport in 1928, India proceeded to win the gold medal every year from 1928 to 1956.

HOCKEY IN INDIA

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

Talking about hockey in India, the first hockey club came up in Calcutta in 188586 and soon Bombay and Punjab followed suit. Making its Olympic debut at the 1928 Amsterdam Games, Indian hockey team cruised home to its first Olympic gold, without conceding a single goal. The hallmark of this ruthless domination was the wizardry of Indian hockey legend - Dhyan Chand, who mesmerized the Amsterdam crowd with his dazzling skills. From 1928 to 1956, the Indian hockey juggernaut won six straight Olympic gold medals, while winning 24 consecutive matches. During this time, India scored 178 goals conceding only 7 in the process.

This was the golden era of Indian hockey, when India loomed large in world hockey and produced some of the finest players the game has ever seen.

During this dominance, one name that clearly comes to mind is Balbir Singh.

DECLINE OF HOCKEY IN INDIA

Figure 5: Dhyan Chand

The Indian hockey team - once an indomitable force - has suffered a rare predicament though: it has slowly but surely lost to the game itself. As the sport evolved, changing itself to woo the modern world, India stayed rooted in its past and is still paying the price. Since India’s last Olympic hockey gold in a depleted field at the Moscow Olympics in 1980, the game has time and again drawn on the support of its glorious past to garner support. Why did India lose its supremacy? - There are, of course, many reasons for this, but a major one is the constant changes in the rules of the game effected by the FIH, whose members found ways to undermine the skilful play that both India and Pakistan were famous for. Instead, the new rules put a premium on power play, with force, aerial sallies and long hard hits becoming more effective than stick-work.

EVOLUTION OF HOCKEY |15

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

FIH President Rene Frank came up with the astro-turf idea as worried Games organizers found it difficult to prepare a proper grass pitch in the wake of a severe Canadian winter.

It was clear then, that synthetic pitches actually produce a whole new game, warranting a whole new approach and a whole new apparel too. So in came dress and equipment to match - the good old mulberry shaft slowly gave way to graphite and fiberglass sticks; the goalkeepers donned a Star Wars look - helmet, smock, specialized kickers and lightweight pads. . New-look hockey acquiesced to the demands of modern sport: Speed, stamina and strength replaced sublime skill, and, protective gear such as gum guards and face masks for field players too made their appearance. The ball changed from the good old seamed leather to a spheroid made of a mixture of rubber and plastic, dimpled to reduce considerably higher velocities than witnessed on natural grass.

It was clear then, that synthetic pitches actually produce a whole new game, warranting a whole new approach and a whole new apparel too New-look hockey acquiesced to the demands of modern sport: Speed, stamina and strength replaced sublime skill.

The gold medal win at the 1980 Moscow Olympics was the Indian Hockey team’s last major achievement in the competition. After India’s 1983 Cricket World Cup triumph, cricket overtook hockey as India’s unofficial national sport in terms of popularity. The hockey team’s performance declined over the next 3 decades. It failed to win a medal at the Olympics or the World Championships.

EVOLUTION OF THE RULES

Following are some of the rule evolution due to which the game of hockey has changed from the time India used to be on top: -

1982 NO HANDSTOP IN PENALTY CORNERS The objective was to make penalty corners less lethal. It hasn't happened but at least new variations have emerged. India haven't learnt any new trick.

1987 PARTIAL NO OFF-SIDE RULE Players could be offside up to the 25yard line but not beyond. Met with partial success and encouraged views to abolish it altogether.

1992 - MODIFIED OBSTRUCTION RULE - ROLLING SUBSTITUTION Aiming to place emphasis on skill and reduce the focus on fitness

- PAVING WAY FOR DRAG FLICK

Figure 9: Evolution of the rules

1996 THE NO OFFSIDE RULE With no restriction on movement of players, the game changed radically. It has meant more goals, fewer stoppages and a reduced burden on the umpires. A less creative midfield is the flip side.

• In India, talent in hockey should be identified at the grass root level.

• Qualified hockey coaches along with other supporting staff should be made available in all states of India. The state government should properly monitor these sports bodies.

• The state associations should at least consider maintaining one stadium of international standard at their venues.

CURRENT SCENARIO |27

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

• In India, it should be made mandatory for the schools to have an astro turf hockey playfield. Grass hockey field should be eliminated.

• The private sector in India should also follow the Government endeavour in offering well paid jobs to national and international hockey players.

Educational Factor • Hockey should be equally encouraged in private as well as aided schools.

• Weightage should be given to sports and hockey in prestigious exams like IIT, AIIMS, PMT, IMA etc.

• Motivation to participate in the game can also be done in the form of scholarships to outstanding hockey players or through sports quota admission in hockey.

• Players should be trained to become computer literate so that they self-evaluate themselves.

Economic Factors • Availability of good quality hockey equipment.

• All hockey academies should have good hostel facilities along with other supporting facilities for the players.

• There should be sufficient lockers/changing rooms for the hockey players during practice sessions.

• The monthly salary of players participating in various major games at a particular level of tournament should be same.

• National/International level hockey players should be given incentives in the form of scholarships, monthly stipends and other benefits to help them take care of their daily expenses and thus encouraging hockey in India.

• The gap between money allocations made by the Government and it reaching the hockey players should be reduced by implementing transparent process and systems.

• International matches and tournament exposure to Indian hockey players should be sufficiently provided.

CURRENT SCENARIO |28

Psychological Factor

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

• Selection for hockey teams at any level should be completely based on performance.

• A policy related to grading in hockey should be well devised and implemented.

Under this policy, grading of Indian hockey player must be done based on their annual performance during that year and a rank system should be maintained at State, Central and International level. The hockey players may be provided with jobs along with financial and training facility based on their rank.

• Regular and systematic counselling sessions should be held for hockey players and their parents.

• Along with physical fitness, player should be trained towards the development of their mental fitness as well.

• Good media coverage by various means can help hockey attain popularity in India.

• Government should formulate special policies and schemes for girls who want to pursue hockey as a career option but cannot afford.

LONG TERM HOCKEY DEVELOPMENT (LTHD)

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

LTHD is designed to promote lifelong wellness for all field hockey participants and optimal performances for the elite players, particularly in the growth and development years when performances can become unstable and lead to dropout.

LTHD is based on general findings that the greater the quality of player preparation, the greater the likelihood that players of all abilities will remain active throughout their lifetimes, and the greater the likelihood that the performance peaks of those who pursue excellence will be higher and maintained over a longer period.

LTHD encourages athletes to enjoy the game and improve their performances through: •

Logical and integrated training and practice programs;

•

Application of scientific principles in growth, development and maturation;

•

Provision of an optimal structure for competition at stages of LTHD;

•

Identification of stakeholder roles in the implementation of the support systems

of athlete development (ie. Coaching, officiating).

Sports can be classified as early or late specialization. Sports such as Gymnastics and figure skating qualify as early specialization, while other sports such as soccer and field hockey are classified as late specialization. Because field hockey is a late specialization sport, LTHD actively discourages early specialization since premature specialization contributes to imbalanced physical development, overuse injuries, early burnout, and inadequate development of movement and sports skills. LTHD recognizes these 7 stages in the development of field hockey players: Stage 1: Active Start: Ages 0-U6 Stage 2: FunStix: Ages 6-10 Stage 3: Learning to Train: Ages 9-12 males, 8-11 females Stage 4: Training to Train: Ages 12-16 males, 11-15 females Stage 5: Training to Compete: Ages 16-19 Stage 6: Training to Win: Ages 19 and beyond Stage 7: Hockey for Life: All ages

SCOPE OF PROJECT |31

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

The first three stages of LTHD encourage physical literacy for all players, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, and correspond to the ages prior to the adolescent growth spurt (PHV). Stages four, five, and six focus on developing excellence and correspond to PHV’s onset and aftermath. Stage seven encourages lifelong physical activity, and players may choose to enter this stage at any time in their playing career.

LTHD answers the need to develop elite players for international competitions such as the World Cup, Olympic Games, and Champions Trophy. It also promotes field hockey as an active lifestyle for athletes at all ages and levels of ability.

We must come to a mutual understanding of “what great looks like” in every detail of our sport’s delivery. From tactical and technical skill emphasis in each unique stage of an athlete’s development, to best practices in coach and umpire education, administrative support, success recognition, and governance structures. Implementation of LTHD is a challenge every member of the field hockey community is invited to join. It must be approached with patience, understanding, resolve, and with a clear sight on the end goal of a strengthened Indian field hockey system. Until the time we can start the LTHD process with the following four priority areas, which may be refined over time by the HI Board and stakeholders.

1. Participation 2. High Performance Support 3. Competitive Opportunity 4. Technical Leadership

IMPORTANT FACTORS IN LTDH

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

Figure 14: Factors in LTHD for Male/ Felmaes

DEVELOPMENTAL AGE

Everyone passes through the same stages of development from early childhood through adolescence, but the timing, rate, and amount of their development varies. This is described as the difference between chronological age and developmental age. Two children may be the same chronological age (e.g. 11 years old), but at the same time they may be four to five years apart in developmental age. LTHD asks field hockey coaches and administrators to take developmental age into account when they design programs and select players.

SCOPE OF PROJECT |35

TRAINABILITY

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

The physiological systems of every player can be trained at any age, but there are critical periods in the player’s development when the body is especially responsive to specific types of movement and skills training. To reach their genetic potential, players need to receive the right type of training at the correct stage of development. If these critical periods are missed, players may grow to be fast, jump high, and strike well, but they will never be as fast, jump as high, or strike as well as they might have done with timely specialized training.

PHYSICAL, MENTAL, COGNITIVE, AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT As players grow from childhood through adolescence, they experience significant changes in physical, mental, cognitive, and emotional development. Coaches and administrators need to consider these changes carefully when they plan training programs and design competition formats. Failure to address these changes may result in mental or emotional burnout, undue mental stress, anxiety, diminished confidence, and early exit from the sport.

Figure 15: Scroll.in Article dated December 2019

The Article seen above was published on the online news website of Scroll.in, it was the interview of former Indian skipper Dilip Tirkey published in december 2019.

“Development of hockey is being treated as a mission by the state government,” said former India skipper Dilip Tirkey, who has been named Chairperson of Odisha Hockey Promotion Council which will be responsible for implementing the program and creating the tier structure from grassroot development to High Performance Centre in Bhubaneshwar and “The first step was to promote the sport across the state by hosting major international events. The next step is to develop grassroot infrastructure,” he added.

It is observed clearly that the importance of grassroot training and LTHD (long term hockey development) program is the need of the time for the Indian hockey to develop and is thus encouraged and recomended by several experties with the hope to initiate projects for the same.

CASE STUDY 1: TATA NAVAL HOCKEY ACADEMY, JHARKHAND, INDIA

LOCATION: Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, India AREA: OPENED: July 13, 2017 ARCHITECT: LMC Architects MANAGEMENT: TATA trust, Bovelander Hockey academy (Holland) CAPACITY: 104 Cadets

Figure 17: Naval Tata hockey academy

The Naval TATA hockey academy is a world class excellence center for hockey which is the joint venture between Tata Trusts, Tata Steel, Bovelander Hockey Academy and Indian Steel and Wire Products Limited (A subsidiary of Tata Steel) having a collaborative arrangement for setting up a grassroots program and the operationalizing the Naval Tata Hockey Academy, with the idea of recruiting 104 cadets for competing in the program and trained to contribute and be a part of the national hockey academy.

HISTORY Jharkhand has a long glorious history with Hockey. The Captain of the first Indian Team to win the Olympic Gold Medal was Jaipal Singh Munda who hailed from Jharkhand.

Though hockey is literally "in the blood", of late players are emerging from the tribal belts of 0disha and not Jharkhand. This provided a great opportunity to professionalize hockey in Jharkhand and bring back the glory days of hockey to both India and Jharkhand. Indian Hockey needs to be infused with modern hockey techniques right from the grassroots to elite level play. The name ‘Naval Tata’ was given after Naval Hormusji Tata as he was the former president of the academic association which mainly looked after the sports education in India.

Age group of U-12 is most critical as that is the formative age for developing skills.

Dominance of dirt pitches to practice means that Indian children have to re-learn the game at the age of 12 or 14 on artificial pitches. By this time, their European counterparts have already been playing for at least 5 year on artificial pitches and are deciding to make a career from hockey playing. Thus, even with foreign at elite levels, players can improve their game by maximum 20% and unable to deliver consistent performances.

Thus the academy was proposed to provide training at the grassroot level with the provision of the astro turfs infusing with the modern hockey techniques.

LIGHT WELL FEATURE A light well is an architectural feature that can be used to take natural light into the interior spaces of a building. It takes the form of a vertical shaft within the volume of a building that typically penetrates from roof level down to lower levels, allowing the transmission of natural light to areas that would otherwise require artificial lighting. The Light well has a mirror-like interior surface, which bounces the light down, around varied shaped surfaces and obstructions, and as far down into the structure as we want it to go. Light wells can also be used to promote ventilation. The advantages of light wells are that they can reduce the electric lighting requirements of a building, as well as providing a semiopen space within the structure. Small, highly-reflective light wells that 'collect' light and transmit it to the interior of a building may be referred to as daylight systems or light tubes.

The structural complex is provided with 3 such light wells; 1 each at the north east and south east corner entrance of the structure and one at the center passing through the central block behind the viewing gallery. The 2 at the main entrances are semi-enclosed light wells and the central one is an open light well lighting up the lower level and ventilating the air through it. The below section shows the section through the central lightwell and the west elevation indicates all the light wells provided.

Roofing Material

Figure 60: Archery range Seating

The seating facility has a tensile roof covering with formwork and rainwater services meet. The material used for the roof is the textile developed by Mehler Texnologies. It has The two sided surface lacquering with PVDF lacquer, that makes it possible to evenly weld the fabric strips into large surfaces without having to grind the edges. The seams are weather tight and prevent the penetration of moisture and microbes. The chemical composition of the lacquer makes the surface dirt-repellent; the appearance of the roofing is maintained for a long time. Further advantage of technical textiles is their reaction to tension and pressure. The flexibility of the base fabric and the coatings provide this construction material with very high tear strength and tear resistance.

Specific characteristics of the material components compensate for frequent climatic changes between dry and wet or warm and cold. Large sport, culture or leisure time events with thousands of visitors are usually held only for a limited time. these type of materials are used in the retractable roofs and the temporary structure roofing.

INFERENCE The Yamuna sports complex site has multiple entries from all road bound sides but the entry segregation is not specified neither followed. The parking provide is sufficient but exceeds at the time of hosting major events as its not flexible. The complex approximately has 75% of open space including the sports ground and the recreational spaces, thus lot of landscaping and plantation is provided throughout the complex, however the landscaping is not properly planned. The complex gives more priority to the sports which in present times are much less played. Whereas The sports like basketball has the provision of only 1 court, and the grounds for cricket and hockey turfs are not well maintained. The plan of the complex is scattered, with the built structures placed priority wise. Due to this each block is accessed separately and the distance between few of the blocks is not feasible from the pedestrian’s circulation perspective. The stadiums are provided with retractable seating for hosting major crowd capacities.

Sprinklers and fire detectors are provided as per the required norms in each of the blocks.

Separate area for the services including the electrical, HVAC, canteens etc are provided in each structural block. The complex is well equipped with the provisions for the especially abled and has features of inclusive design; with the provision of ramps and elevators within each block. The complex has various sustainability features which in turn reduces the environmental impact of the complex in a location with heavy environmental Issues.

The Olympic hockey center or the Olympic grass Hockey center is the part of Deodoro Olympic Park, located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Olympic Park of Deodoro is the first Olympic region in size, with an area of 2.5 million square meters, and second in capacity, stage of 11 Olympic modalities and four paralympic ones of RIO 2016. The Olympic modalities are Canoe Slalom, Cycling ( BMX and Mountain Bike), Grass Hockey, Shooting, Modern Pentathlon, Basketball (women only), Rugby and Equestrian (Jumping, Dressage and CCE ). The Paralympic Games consist of Wheelchair Fencing, Shooting, 7-a-side Football and Equestrian (Dressage). The Olympic hockey centre was the main Hockey arena for the 2016 Olympics hosted in the City.

The above site plan shows the Olympic park of Deodoro, developed during the 2016 Olympics. The Olympic hockey center is located in the central portion of the park (16).

PLANNING

The Olympic Field Hockey Centre consists of two arenas, a warm-up field and a building with changing rooms, a medical centre and an administrative office. This building is connected to both arenas through a marquee that also links them to each other.

One of the main challenges of this project was to position the arena’s fields onto a very irregular site, few access points and a fairly slender pre-defined area. Each field is almost the size of a soccer field (91.4 meters long by 55 meters wide), and the warm-up field is half the size of the arenas (45,7m x 55m). The warm-up field is located between the arenas.

HOCKEY PITCHES The main arena has 2.500 permanent and 5.300 temporary seats totalling 7.800 seats.

The last seating rows are the ones that will be kept in the legacy project. These seats were boldly designed since they face the North sector entry of the Deodoro Complex. Meanwhile, the second arena does not have permanent stands and will have a temporary seating capacity for 4.100 people. The arenas also have to be in a correct position in relation to the sun (north-south) and also provide enough space for several temporary installations such as grandstands, food stands and access points to game operation areas.

PITCH DETAILS The fields are made with a royal blue synthetic grass, standardization started at the London Olympics in 2012, in order to make the sport more attractive and also to offer a better contrast with the ball. Much precision was needed in order to execute these fields: beneath the synthetic grass surface are two layers of asphalt, a 35 mm thick upper layer, with a tolerance of more or less 3mm in 3 meters, a 35 mm lower layer with a tolerance of more or less 6mm every 3 meters and, also a shock pad layer, made of an impact absorbing rubber. All this to ensure that the 235 mm in circumference ball rolls smoothly on the field.

LIGHTINGS Both arenas and the warm-up field alike are uncovered but still must comply to very specific lighting requirements established by the new television transmission technology such as 4K and 3D. The lighting project produces over 2 thousand lux and has 40m high light poles.

STANDS AND SEATING The main hockey pitch has the permeant stand seating’s on only one side of the pitch length. And the other 3 sides of the pitch are planed such so as to accommodate the temporary scaffolding seating’s during the major events as per the required capacities.

It thus has 2.500 permanent seating’s and 5.300 temporary seats bring the total to 7.800 seats. As seen in the above figure, The stands can be accessed from the back front of the permanent seating’s with a total of 6 entries. Out of the 6 entrance the 2 entries are via a ramp on either ends of the stands for the handicap guest making it user friendly. Just Below the stands there are 4 block provision for the guests and services consisting of the toilets, technical area, circulation and access passages and Kiosk.

HISTORY The common lands of Glasgow Green on which the present national hockey center resides, were gifted to the people of Glasgow by Bishop Turnbull in 1450. The park was originally used for washing linen, grazing animals and drying fishing nets. In 1732, a washhouse was built on Glasgow Green by the banks of the Camlachie Burn. It was Glasgow’s first ‘steamie’, Glasgow Green hosts major events all year round. These include the World Pipe Band Championships, the Great Scottish Run and the Glasgow Show. Glasgow Green has witnessed centuries of history, but the city’s oldest public park continues to evolve. The venue for the hockey competition as the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games has been created at a site is on Kings Drive and sits beside the Glasgow Green Football Centre. This was the last of the venues to be completed by Glasgow City Council that was used during the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games.

MAIN VENUE Lead Partner: Glasgow City Council Other Partners: Scottish Government Scottish Hockey Glasgow 2014 Capacity: 514 Opened: 2013 The new hockey facility is owned by Glasgow City Council and sits adjacent to the Glasgow Green Football Centre. When the drama of the Hockey competition is over, the world-class sporting facilities will remain, acting as headquarters for Scottish Hockey and being used by Glasgow schools for training and competition. The facility will consist of two synthetic hockey pitches, one main pitch and other the warm up pitch along with an athlete and official support areas block. The main pitch has the permanent seating provisions. It features two new FIH standard waterbased floodlit synthetic hockey pitches, with changing accommodations for players and officials, to serve as the hockey competition and warm-up facilities during the Games.

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

SEATING

The main building of the Glasgow National Hockey Centre has 500 seats in its grandstand, although there will be 5,000 seats there during the Games, with a further 4,500 spectator places created as a result of temporary stands erected for the hockey competition.

PITCH There is the provision of 2 synthetic turfs on the site- one is the main field and the other the warmup/ training field. Two pitches were fitted with the Poligras Mega CoolPlus complete synthetic turf system from Polytan, thus ensuring optimal training and playing conditions. The colour scheme is certainly eye-catching: the bright blue and bright green surfaces installed in the stadium match the colours of the stand. In contrast, the synthetic turf in the training ground consists of blue and purple areas

DETAIL The unfilled Poligras Mega CoolPlus is particularly suitable for hockey as the compact and uniform structure of the turf does not distort the rolling behaviour of the ball, thus facilitating precise play. It provides a dense and even surface which means that ball rolling behaviour is not distorted by directional factors, allowing players to play a fast and accurate game.

CASE STUDY | 73

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

The special texturing process preserves the exceptional volume and resilience of Poligras Mega CoolPlus. In spite of its robustness, the turf is extremely soft and feels pleasant to the skin. As a result, it is also used for football in multifunctional facilities. The Polytan CoolPlus function also ensures that the synthetic material does not heat up too quickly or excessively, even in strong sunlight. This also reduces water consumption. More than half of the clubs in the German hockey league rely on Poligras Mega CoolPlus. Just like all the hockey pitch products from Polytan it meets the international requirements of the International Hockey Federation (FIH).

Majorly no Video analysis studio/ Classrooms were provided which is recommended as a necessity in the present times to meet international sports standards so as to analyse the play and observe each cadet and for them to themselves improvise their techniques and learn from their mistakes.

Provision of library is not seen as a necessity by majority of the sports-based academies thus they were not provided majorly but it is encouraged to be provided for any academic centres for their student’s betterment.

The residential/ Hostel provisions provided were observed to be of Dorm type in majority.

Provision of swimming pool was noted majorly but was not used actively for physical training which should be focused on.

The dinning/Mess facility for the cadets was majorly provided but no provision is observed of a nutritionist team; for the supervision of the required healthy food intake as per fitness requirement of each cadet, which is a necessity provision for the cadets and the team.

The provision for a Physiotherapist and team is also one of the necessary requirements which is observed to be not found.

On an average all facilities mentioned were equipped with provisions for female batches and the provision were found to be satisfactory.

Overall, the infrastructure rating was found to be above average but the need for the development and additions in the provided facilities, from better equipment provision, to required medical teams on campus, From the provision of physiotherapist and nutritionist to proper provisions for developing the cadets; both physically and mentally. Along with keeping up to date with the new technologies is what the players would look forward to in a training academy and is what would help them advance their skills and also encourage other people for participation in the sport.

Pitch Classification: FIH has a classification system for synthetic pitches which fall nto two categories:  Global and National. (Until April 2008, the National category was called “Standard” and this terminology will still appear in some publications.) The classification is based on a series of pitch performance requirements including the behaviour of a hockey ball and drainage characteristics tested under carefully controlled conditions on the finished pitch surface. 

Global Category: Global category pitches are mandatory for all FIH world-level competitions and qualifying tournaments such as:

-

Olympic Games

-

World Cups

-

Junior World Cups

-

Champions’ Trophies

-

Champions’ Challenges

-

FIH Olympic Games Qualifying Tournaments

-

FIH World Cup Qualifying Tournaments

A global category pitch is also sometimes specified in continental or national tournament Regulations.

TYPES OF TURFS The level of hockey that is proposed for the venue will be a major influence on the type of pitch surface to be laid. There are essentially two main groups of pitch surface: natural grass and synthetic turf.

Natural Grass Pitches: There are many types of grass, and expert advice should be sought to help in the choice of grass that is most suitable for a particular climate and soil conditions. Similarly, advice on whether to seed the pitch or to lay sods should be sought. The latter is far more expensive, but has the advantage that it can be played on much sooner than a seeded area, which could require at least a year of careful maintenance to become sufficiently established to permit safe play without causing serious damage to the surface.

Synthetic (or Artificial) Turf Pitches: There are a number of different types of synthetic surface available. However, the surfaces proposed to be used in SAI Centres are considered here. This fall generally undergone of the following headings:

PITCH IRRIGATION  Sand-filled pitch: in most instances, such a pitch does not justify the expense of installing a watering system. However, it is widely known that the pitch plays better when the sand is slightly damp. Consideration should be given, therefore, to the installation of a water source to enable hand-held hose watering to be carried out. This is more important in hotter, drier parts of the world as the sand will certainly dry out and tend to become “dust”. Watering will also improve the playing characteristics. In more moderate climates, the sand remains damp for longer periods, so the need for such watering will be significantly less.  Water-based unfilled pitch: it is considered essential that this type of pitch is watered for every match. In fact, the FIH strongly discourages playing on an inadequately watered unfilled pitch. There are four main reasons for this: -

greater risk of injury to players;

-

the playability of the pitch is affected: the ball does not travel truly and is more likely to bounce dangerously;

-

greater wear is caused to the pitch surface, considerably shortening the life of the turf, and could affect the manufacturer’s warranty;

-

Pitch surface temperatures, particularly in hot climates, can rise to unhealthy levels.

Pitch Carpet Materials (Yarns) Historically, turf yarns have been made from nylon, polypropylene or polyethylene, or a combination of those. There are some differences in performance characteristics between them and these are discussed below. The FIH does not specify any one type of yarn; its technical requirements are purely performance based, None of the yarn material is completely UV-resistant, but polypropylene is probably the best of the three, followed by polyethylene. So for hot, sunny climates, either of these two yarns may be considered. The majority of FIH approved manufacturers appears to be moving from polypropylene to polyethylene yarns because the latter have an improved slide factor, which in turn requires the application of less water. This indicates that substantial savings in water quantity for irrigation can be realised without any consequential adverse effects on pitch playability or player comfort and safety.

Carpet Manufacture FIH makes no recommendation with regard to the various treatments to the yarn or the processes to form the turf carpet. For example, the yarn may be twisted, curled, ANTROPOMETRIC DATA |96

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

fibrillated, multiplied or have other treatments before it is looped or knitted into a preformed backing fabricant then cut to the desired length. The backing fabric is then sealed. Manufacture is by weaving, tufting or knitting to the density required for the particular type of surface.

Shock-pads Shock pad is the resilient material under the synthetic turf carpet designed to absorb kinetic energy. Sometimes referred to as ‘Shock Absorbing Layer’, ‘Elastic Layer’ or ‘E-Layer’. Early synthetic turfs were laid without a shock-pad. It is now recommended that all synthetic pitches be laid with shock-pad as it will help to absorb the impact (dynamic forces) of players running on the surface and reduce the incidence of lower limb injuries. In fact, the FIH now makes a shock-pad mandatory for any pitch to become classified under its listing. It is recommended to provide Insitu pad, as this is manufactured on site using a hot mix of rubber shred or crumbs, bound with polyurethane. It is laid using a highway paving machine. The advantage of this system is that the pad can be of variable thickness to even out any imperfections in the level of the underlying base, and can produce a smooth finish on which to lay the turf carpet. It is recommended that the pitch surface and shock-pad be laid on a properly designed and engineered base and, where necessary, a sub-base. The base should comprise a layer of graded stone (which includes the drainage system) overlain by a layer (preferably two layers) of bituminous material. Carried out properly, the base will outlast by several times the life of the shock-pad and surface carpet.

WHY NAVI MUMBAI?

• 30 Years ago, it was a green field site; a dream in the planner’s mind as a local for a new town. Today it is home to more than 1m. Well planned transportation, network connectivity of road, rail and water ways system makes it easily accessible.

• Spread over an area of 344 sq.km. the satellite city of Navi Mumbai has various sports complexes but a very few with field Hockey training facility included in it. The few complexes which have the field hockey training provisions with the required infrastructure are either not well equipped or are not made available for everyone’s use as in are a part of private schools/ colleges etc.

• The site is located at Ghansoli node zone where as such there are no nearby facility for hockey training, the people who want to train and play the sport have to travel to the other parts of Mumbai and Navi Mumbai to do so. Ghansoli is easily accessible to the people from various parts of the city, state, and country (India) via railways/ roadways / airways. The NMMCT bus depot is located towards the south-east corner if the site. The proposed Navi Mumbai international airport is will ease the traffic for the people from out of the state to reach the site. The new metro and highway projects are in progress in the close vicinity of the site.

• The site is located in a residential zone thus there are various schools and colleges from where the crowd for participation in the physical activity and Hockey training can be attracted from very early ages and can be given to host various competitions for inter schools and zone level.

SITE CONTEXT

The site is has been swamped on the western portion and dumped with malba on the majority of the eastern portion on which the vegetations have taken over. There are a number of encroachments from slum dwellers and a few patches in the eastern portion have been cleared out for small agricultural ventures.

TRAFFIC PATTERN The Main road bound to the site is the Gangagiri Maharaj marg which is the extension of the Palm beach road towards Ghansoli. This main road connects the ghansoli area with Vashi via Koper khairane road, which experince a mild traffic during rush hours due to the presence to the high residentials complexes. The road running towards the site however experiences very mild traffic flow during both weekdays and weekends

The above chart is the Wind wheel representing the Ghansoli area indicating the wind speed and wind direction with temprature and Humidity ranges over the period of 12 months.

• The least amount of rainfall occurs in January. The average in this month is 0 mm. With an average of 1034 mm, the most precipitation falls in July.

• The temperatures are highest on average in May, at around 30.1 °C. January has the lowest average temperature of the year. It is 23.4 °C. • The variation in the precipitation between the driest and wettest months is 1034 mm. During the year, the average temperatures vary by 6.7 °C.

Based on the Climatic analysis following are few of the techinques and design starategies to incorporate in the planing of the hockey academy • Screened porches and patios can provide passive comfort cooling by ventilation in warm weather and can prevent insect problems Long narrow building floorplan can help maximize cross ventilation in temperate and hot humid climates.

• High mass interior surfaces (tite, slate, stone, brick or adobe) feel naturally cool on hot days and can reduce day-to-night temperature swings.

• Keep the building small (right-sized) because excessive floor area wastes heating and cooling energy.

HOCKEY ACADEMY CLUB

• Minimize or eliminate west facing glazing to reduce summer and fall afternoon heat gain Raise the indoor comfort thermostat setpoint to reduce air conditioning energy consumption (especially if occupants wear seasonally appropriate clothing).

• Traditional passive homes in hot windy dry climates used enclosed well shaded courtyards, with a small fountain to provide wind protected microclimates.

• Traditional passive homes in hot humid climates used light weight construction with openable walls and shaded outdoor porches, raised above ground.

• Orient most of the glass to the north, shaded by vertical fins in very hot climates, because there are essentially no passive solar needs High Efficiency air conditioner or heat pump (at least Energy Star) should prove cost effective in this climate • A radiant barrier (shiny foil) will help reduce radiated heat gain through the roof in hot climates • On hot days ceiling fans or indoor air motion can make it seem cooler by 5 degrees F (2.8C) or more, thus less air conditioning is needed.

• Use plant materials (bushes, trees, ivy-covered walls) especially on the west to minimize heat gain (f summer rains support native plant growth).

• Use light colored building materials and cool roofs (with high emissivity) to ducted heat gain.
