1 Sports Infrastructure in India

1.1 Introduction

Considering the key role of sports in national life and for inculcating national

pride in the younger generation, the objective of broad basing, that is,

universalisation or mass participation in Sports assumes special significance. It

is imperative to ensure that the educational institutions, Schools and Colleges

in both rural and urban areas; the Panchayati Raj Institutions, Local Bodies,

the government machinery, the Sports Associations and Industrial

Undertakings, as also the various Youth and Sports Clubs.

Efforts will be made to promote and encourage women’s participation

in sports. The Union and State Governments, as well as the Sports

Federations/Associations will endeavour to promote a “sports culture” for the

speedier development of Sports in the country.

As a nation we are proud of our ancient civilization. Our religious culture has

produced great scholars and seekers of salvation, enlistment the world over

look to India for advice in religious matters; matters related to the science,

technology and commerce. But sadly, we have never had what could be called

a sports culture. Not even in the Mahabharata days did we have a sports

culture. Archery, boxing and wrestling were used as war weapons. But no

contests were held even in these disciplines.

With the advent of modern sports and the Olympic movement, Indians did put

in serious effort in some sports. Dhyan Chand led the hockey crusade and

India ruled the roost for three decades winning seven gold medals. Milkha

Singh broke the world record in 400m at Rome in 1960 (but unfortunately

three others did the same, ahead of him). P.T. Usha showed the world that

Indian women are capable of competing with the best. Prakash Padukone beat

the world single-handedly winning the All-England and the world title in

badminton. But all these are stray cases of excellence and none of them are

products of sports culture. They are all self-made greats. India can at the most

claim to have a cricket culture, it has become just like religion. But the

prevailing Cricket Culture is not Sports Culture.


1

With a potential talent pool of 1.1billion people, India is realizing the

importance of competition in each sport and training athletes.

At present there are more than 54 Sports facilities (indoor, cricket, football,

hockey and multipurpose stadiums) in India which are capable of having a

large scale event in respective sports.

1.2 Types of Sports infra-facilities

There are various types of sports infrastructural facilities which are as

following:-

1.2.1 International Multipurpose Stadiums:

These stadiums are used for multiple events like

football, hockey, athletics etc. Size wise, these

facilities are the biggest ones as same is used

for multiple events simultaneously.

As India is hosting Common wealth games in

year 2010, a lot of new facilities are under

construction near by Delhi.

1.2.2 Cricket Stadiums:

These stadiums are meant for cricket in focus,

however can also be utilised for other cultural

and entertainment events of fairly large size.

Cricket being the most popular sport in India,

these sports facilities are the major part of

overall sports facilities.

1.2.3 Indoor Stadiums:

Certain sports activities like table tennis,

badminton, wrestling, weight lifting, squash,

volleyball, basketball etc. are played under roof

and thus indoor stadium is required.

Special floor is required for different sports

activities and thus indoor stadium is

1.2.4 Aquatic centre

Aquatic centres are used for water sports like

swimming, diving, water polo etc. It may be

completely indoor or semi-open

1.2.5 Other smaller facilities :

This red to be the entry point for international travellers and would be used for

dispersal of international traffic to the hinterland.

District Stadiums:


1

The government is keen to encourage the development sports in smaller towns

and cities. Many towns and cities have a sports area either an open stadium or

a playground with permanent seating facility available.

Indoor sports Complexes:

Many cities across the country have indoor sports complex with capacity of 100

or 150 people. These facilities cater to the regional population for various

indoor sports events.

1.3 PPP in Sports Infrastructure: Case Studies

Sports have always been treated as a responsibility of State (Government).

Private sector is involved in providing ancillary services like marketing,

broadcasting and branding and infrastructure maintenance and operations.

Public Private Partnership would be a new approach to develop world class

infrastructure in sports and only a few examples are available to study. Some

of the latest developments in sports infrastructure through PPP which are

worth considering are as following:-

1.3.1 Singapore Sports Hub

The Sports Hub will be Singapore's premier land and sea sports, entertainment

and lifestyle hub with integrated programming. A unique cluster development

of integrated world-class sports facilities within the city, it will play a critical

role in accelerating the development of sports industry, excellence and

participation and take sports to the next level in Singapore.

Located on a 35ha site in Kallang, the Sports Hub will include the following

facilities:

• A new 55,000-capacity National Stadium with a retractable roof;

• A 6,000-capacity indoor Aquatic Centre that meets world tournament

standards;

• A 3,000-capacity multi-purpose arena which will be scalable and flexible

in layout;

• 41,000 sq m of commercial space

• A Water Sports Centre

• The existing 12,000-capacity Singapore Indoor Stadium; and

• Supporting leisure and commercial developments


1

With its world-class facilities, the Sports Hub will be the Centre for Singapore's

elite athletes and high performance management as well as an ideal location

for sports and entertainment events, sports administration, and sports and

recreation businesses.

It will help to create a critical mass of international, regional and local sports

federations and associations, sports medicine and sports science service

providers, sports related training and education service providers, sports

companies' sales and marketing headquarters, and retail outlets.

Located within the city, the Sports

Hub is well connected to the Mass

Rapid Transit network, major

expressways and is only 15 minutes

from the Singapore Changi

International airport.

The Sports Hub is also located next to

the Marina Bay area and is poised to

ride on the wave of exciting

developments at Marina Bay like the

Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort,

Marina Barrage, Singapore Flyer and

the floating platform at Marina Bay.


1

The Hub is the first and largest sports facilities infrastructure Public-Private-

Partnership (PPP) projects in the world. It is also Singapore's largest and

flagship PPP project of this nature.

The Singapore Government is fully committed to this project and is looking

forward to working with private sector partners to capitalise on its full

potential.

1.3.2 Satgadhi Sports Village

Sports City at Satgadhi Village in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh on PPP Basis is a

project costing Rs. 500 crores. It would be one of the largest integrated sports

facility

Major highlights of the project (overall area 172 acres)

An Indicative area allotted within each sports activity are:

• Cricket Stadium: 25 acres

• Aquatic Centre: 5 acres

• Indoor Stadium: 5 acres

• Tennis Complex: 7.5 acres

• Outdoor Sports Complex: 2.5 acres

• 9 hole golf course: 45 acres

• Other fields like sports player housing, parking, ESS, infrastructure etc.:

10 acres

• The remaining area is allotted for real estate development.

2 Institutional Framework

2.1 Hierarchy

Hierarchy of Sports Organizations in India

Source : Websites of SAI and Ministry of youth affairs and sports,

(Indicative Structure)

Ministry of youth affairs and Sports is the top most decision making agency to

promote sports in the country followed by Sports authority of India. Indian

Olympic association comes after SAI which takes care for sports operations

regarding Olympics. However National federations and association registered

with SAI, are also autonomous in there operations and arrange competition of

international level (like BCCI in case of cricket).State government also

promote sports in the respective states through infrastructure providing and

various schemes. Associations, clubs and federations of different sports

coordinate with registered national association and state government.

2.2 Ministry of Youth affairs and Sports

The Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports was initially set up as the Department of

Sports in 1982 at the time of organisation of the IX Asian Games in New Delhi.

Its name was changed to the Department of Youth Affairs & Sports during

celebration of the International Youth Year, 1985. It became a Ministry on the

27th May, 2000. The specific subjects being dealt with by the Ministry are

contained in the Order of the Government of India (Allocation of Business)

Rules, 1961.

Sports promotion is primarily the responsibility of the various National Sports

Federations, which are autonomous. The role of the Government is to create

the infrastructure and promote capacity building for broad–basing sports as

well as for achieving excellence in various competitive events at the national

and international levels. The Ministry’s schemes are geared towards achieving

these objectives.

The National Sports Policy was initially formulated in 1984. In order to broad-

base sports and to promote excellence, Government has formulated a New

National Sports Policy, 2001. The salient features of the New National Sports

Policy are as under:

1. Broad-basing of Sports and achievement of excellence;

2. Upgradation and development of infrastructure;

3. Support to the National Sports Federations and other appropriate bodies;

4. Strengthening of scientific and coaching support to sports;

5. Incentives to sports persons;

6. Enhanced participation of women, Scheduled Tribes and rural youth;

7. Involvement of the Corporate Sector in sports promotion; and

8. Promote sports mindedness among the public at large.

2.3 Sports Authority of India

The Sports Authority of India (SAI) was established by the Government of

India in January 1984 as a registered society primarily to ensure effective

maintenance and optimum utilisation of the various sports infrastructure that

were built in Delhi during Asiad, 1982. It is now the nodal agency in the

country for broad-basing sports and for training of sportspersons to achieve

excellence in national and international sports, the Society for National

Institute of Physical Education and Sports (SNIPES) was merged with SAI with

effect from 1 May 1987.


2

Subsequently Netaji Subhash National Institute of Sports (NSNIS), Patiala and

its allied centres at Bangalore, Kolkata and Gandhinagar and Lakshmibai

National Colleges of Physical Education at Thiruvananthapuram came under

Sports Authority of India (SAI). It has now six regional centres at Bangalore,

Gandhinagar, Kolkata, Chandigarh, Bhopal and Imphal. Sports infrastructure is

being created at Sonepat and the Northern Regional Centre would be shifted

from Chandigarh to Sonepat. SAI has one Centre which is at Guwahati. SAI

also operates a High Altitude Training Centre (HATC) at Shillaroo (H.P.). SAI

proposes to open more sub-centres in addition to its Regional Centres. These

are : (1) Sub-centre at Jabalpur (MP), Lucknow (UP), Nagercoil (Tamil Nadu)

and Hazaribagh (Jharkhand).

2.4 Indian Olympic Association

The Indian Olympic Association is responsible for the preparation and

participation of competitors in the Olympic Games as well as in Regional

events like Commonwealth and Asian Games. There is a separate federation at

national level in each game/sport which assists the Indian Olympic Association

and preparation of sportsmen.

A special feature of the Indian Olympic Association is that, in addition to the

national federation for each sport, there are State Olympic Associations in

various States in the country. The State bodies controlling the different sports

are affiliated to the national federations and to the State Olympic Associations.

The aim of the State Olympic Associations is to ensure the promotion of sports

in their respective States, in conjunction with the State bodies for the different

games and sports. The overall responsibility for participation in the Olympic

Games rests with the Indian Olympic Association

2.5 Sports Associations at state and local levels

Today State governments are playing a bigger role by concentrating on

providing better sports infrastructure facilities to players. More incentivization

to players has also shown good results empirically. For example State of

Andhra Pradesh has turn around the level of sports in state and coming to first

10 states in national games year after year. State of Maharashtra is hosting

Youth Commonwealth games 2008 in Pune.

Sports association at state and local level (district, city and towns) are the

bodies situated at grass-root levels, thus play the most crucial level. As these

bodies select the sportsmen at basic level.

3.1 Present Status of sports facilities in state

State of Uttar Pradesh is having the largest population in the country and

thus requirement of sports facilities are also large. Department of sports

works directly under State Government and works towards promoting

excellence in sports.

Uttar Pradesh holds State Games in Lucknow every year since 2005. The

five-day games featuring 14 Olympic events are held in as a run up

exercise to National Games. These games would be the selection games

to draw a strong team for the National Games. This is an excellent UP to

make its presence felt in the national and international sports arena.

Keeping in view the training and development for excellence in sports

training academies fully funded by public sector in state are as following

:-

• Christian Physical training centre, Lucknow

• Sports College, Lucknow (under SAI)

• Sports academy in Gorakhopur.

Two international level sports infrastructure facilities in Uttar Pradesh are

as following:-


Various districts having a sports complex and open stadium for sports

facilities are as following :-

3.2 Performance

Government is well aware of importance of the sports and providing necessary

momentum through various schemes and incentives. Performance of state’s

sportspersons in various events in national games last year is as following:-


Tally of National Games 2007 (*Source : SAI)

3.3 Reasons for demand of a sports hub

3.3.1 Improving the performance in sports

A thoughtful look at medals tally gives us a strong probability of UP being in

top 5 states. As the number of gold medals won by state are equal to above

two rank holders and just two lesser than last member of top 5.

An international standard sports infrastructure facility at state capital would be

the right kind of impetus at the moment, analyzing the need of hour. A multi-

sports international standard stadium with at least 55000 would suffice the

requirement.

3.3.2 Hub for national and international level sports events

Luknow as a city is a capable candidate for hosting next national games in

2009 with existing and planned sports facilities.

Even state should look forward to bring international events to state. As big

international events affect the whole regional economy. For example Olympics

in china have been the most profitable Olympics games till now. With

increasing popularity of various Cricket and Hockey league matches (inter-

states), even commercial viability of sports infrastructure is not an issue.

3.3.3 Regional analysis

An analysis of whole northern India in terms of international sports

infrastructural facilities shows a clear demand for International standard multi

purpose stadium in state of Uttar Pradesh.

At present there is only one multi purpose stadium with 45000 capacity in

Kanpur (Green park Stadium)


All stadiums situated in Northern India with capacity more than 25000

In terms of commercial viability of sports infrastructure Cricket stadiums have

been found most profitable. A view of all cricket stadiums pan India are as

following:-

Hence an international multi purpose stadium which can also be used for

cricket will be a economically viable and socially required project.

Thus state of Uttar Pradesh being the largest in terms of population can also

deliver the largest number of excellent sports persons in times to come. And

an international standard sports infrastructural facility will also strengthen

India’s bid for 2020 Olympics.

5 Financial Feasibility

Sports Complexes are not financially viable and hence grants are provided by

the State Government, Central Government and major sports councils like

BCCI.

5.1 Revenue Assumptions

The revenue streams are from sale of tickets, food and beverage sales,

advertisements, leasing the stadium for other events and rentals for utilisation

of the facilities for training.

The revenue for the proposed stadium is as follows:

Revenue Streams Value

Revenue from sale fo tickets

No. of days matches are held 20

Average ticket price (Rs.) 400

Average attendance 35000

Total Revenue (Rs. Lakhs) 2800

Revenue accruing to stadium from the revenue from sale of

tickets (Rs. Lakhs) 700

Revenue from Advertisement and food stalls (Rs. Lakhs) 140

Revenue from the indoor sports facilities per month

Swimming Pool (Rs.) 75000

Tennis Court (Rs.) 50000

Gymnasium (Rs.) 75000

Others (Rs.) 30000

Other Events

Rental for the stadium for other events per day (Rs.) 500000

No. of days other events are held 25

Revenue from other events (Rs. Lakhs) 125

Revenue from leasing facilities for training per month (Rs.) 200000

The operating expenditure accounts for approximately 30% of the revenues of

the sports complex of which repairs and maintenance accounts for 15% of the


6 5

revenue, replacement of equipments account for 10% of the revenue and the

rest will account for salary costs.

5.2 Financial Viability

Financial projections are prepared for a 35 year period and the Internal Rate of

Return for the 35 year projection period is only 4%. The reason for the low

viability is the occupancy rates of the sports stadium. Hence, viability gap

funding in the form of land parcel for commercial development shall be

granted to the developer. For a project Internal Rate of Return of 14%, the Net

Present Value of returns from the commercial development of land parcel

should fetch about 79 Cr.
