    SPORTS CITY – KOCHI

    PROJECT OUTLINE:
    Despite its huge population, India is almost always at the bottom in the Olympics Medal
    Tally because of the lack of facilities provided in the field of sports.
    The proposition of the thesis lies within creating an advanced facility for sports in the
    city of Kochi, that would help spread sporting culture in the city as well as serve a
    stepping stone in raising the sports standards of the country. The project of this scale
    would serve as an urban initiative for an inclusive approach towards developing the
    quality of sports infrastructure and education in the city. Due to the lack of land parcel
    in the heart of the city, the sports city project has been proposed in the outskirts of the
    city. Nevertheless, the site remains well connected through road and will be connected
    through metro sooner. Introducing this form of built environment would not only instill
    a change in the way people perceive sports.
    The sports city project is also expected to be a major tourist destination. Not only would
    it be the first of its kind in the country, but it would also provide the users with state of
    art facilities from around the globe. The project aims to be the missing puzzle in India’s
    push towards sporting excellence.
    APPROACH:
    The current trends and practices from around the world suggest that a holistic approach
    is necessary to address the concern of creating an urban sporting culture. An
    architectural intervention may be integrated with different possible solutions which may
    include everything from physical upgradation of sporting infrastructure, inclusivity of
    sporting facilities and maximum utilization of area to provide an additional facility to
    non- special means such as mini events, coaching classes, skill training, heritage policies,
    cultural events, informative publications, summer and winter camps and place branding.
    It is important to look at each sporting event with equal importance, widening the
    horizon of scope in the subject of sports as a possible career.

    In the light of all these solutions that complement one another, an architectural
    intervention would be in creating a web of solutions where the ideas work as a single
    entity.

    SITE:
    Location: Kochi, Kerala
    Area: 32 acres
    Kerala has a strong sport following which can boost the success of the sports city.
