ABSTRACT
‘This research paper entitled as “SPORTS CITY” is an attempt to study the past, present and
future of designing a city which itself has a vibrant gatherings and healthy sports
environment.
Recently, in India after the regular bad performances in Olympics, the government realised to
provide sports cities with sports infrastructure facilities to those who wish to take sports as
career, According to FICCI 2016 report, 1.3 million youngsters in the country wish to make
their career in sports.
Looking at the sports condition in India, it seems that it has become a single sports nation ice
cricket has become dominant over all other types of sports, We are second most populous
country in the world but we in Olympics and other international games events we just
struggle to bring average no.of medals. It shows that we lack in sports culture on international
platforms, But this is not true, we are having multi-talented players across the country. They
do not get chance to prove themselves due to lack of sports culture in our society. Since it has
become a mainstream in society not to take sports as a career.
So if we wanted to see India as a “multi-sports nation” we need to nourish the sports culture
fiom the childhood. Middle East countries have succeed in this by developing sport cities.
Every group of society irrespective of any discrimination must involve himseli7herself in
sporting activities to make nation proud at international games events
On the other hand, our country has been called as a capital of unhealthy nation, Since most of
the people across the country suffer from major health issues. It is because they do not
involve themselves in any kind of physical activities. Taking sports can help them to
‘overcome this,it will help them to be mentally and physically fit.
‘This research paper clearly investigates the process to design a sports city dealing with all the
necessary factors and aspects, It aims to build a sustainable sports spirit raising environment
taking society as whole.
It is hoped that this study will act as a source of guidance for those researchers and designers
who are in need of designing a “smart” sports city
