SPORTS FACILITIES FOR PUDUCHERRY

Puducherry — still Pondicherry to many — is not part of Tamil Nadu but the capital of a Union Territory, bordered on its landward side by Tamil Nadu's Viluppuram and Cuddalore districts. Its French past shows in the grid of the seafront White Town and the promenade along the Bay of Bengal, and the town is home to Pondicherry University, JIPMER and a large number of schools and colleges.

Students, a steady flow of visitors and new residential neighbourhoods on the edges of town all add to the demand for well-built places to play. Puducherry is an easy drive down the East Coast Road from our Chennai base, and our engineers travel there for site surveys and to carry out projects. The survey and consultation are free, with no charge for the travel.

Climate & Ground

BUILT FOR THE COROMANDEL COAST

Puducherry is warm and humid all year and, like the rest of this coast, gets most of its rain from the northeast monsoon between October and December. Cyclones crossing the coast near the town — Thane in 2011 and Nivar in 2020 among them — have brought destructive winds and very heavy rain, and sandy coastal soils with a shallow water table mean ground can stay wet for a while afterwards.

Salt-Proof Steel

Bare steel rusts quickly in sea air. Posts, frames, net hardware and floodlight poles are galvanised or powder-coated, with corrosion-resistant fixings throughout.

Cyclone-Aware Design

Tall netting and lighting are engineered for wind load, with deeper footings in loose, sandy soil, and netting that lets wind through or can be taken down ahead of a storm.

Sandy Ground, High Water

Sand drains well until the water table rises. We build a compacted, stable sub-base and plan drainage outlets so the surface recovers after heavy monsoon rain.

FAQ

QUESTIONS FROM PUDUCHERRY

Small-sided synthetic football turf

Do you work in Puducherry, even though it is outside Tamil Nadu?

Yes. Puducherry is a Union Territory rather than part of Tamil Nadu, but it is an easy drive down the coast from our Chennai base, and our engineers travel there for site surveys and project work. The survey and consultation are free, with no charge for travel from Chennai.

Will salt air damage a turf or court near the beach?

The playing surfaces cope well; it's exposed metal that suffers. That's why we specify galvanised or powder-coated steel and corrosion-resistant fixings for everything from goalposts to floodlight poles, and recommend rinsing and inspecting them as part of routine maintenance.

Can you add a court to an existing school or college campus in Puducherry?

Usually. We look at the open space available, how it sits against the surrounding ground and where water drains during the monsoon, then suggest a court or turf that fits.
