 We
believe that
infrastructure is
the heart and soul
of any training
facility. In other
words, a school /
academy can only be
as good as its
infrastructure.
Therefore,
understanding the
requirements of our
students, we have
built facilities to
their finest detail.
We have provided for
a gymnasium at the
grounds, besides
another one at the
school.
Similarly, a library
each has been at the
grounds and the
school. Provisions
have also been made
for a Table Tennis
room to enable the
students to hone
their eye-hand
coordination. An
audio-visual center
for video analysis
of students
recordings,
screening of
motivational films,
and presentations by
the faculty.
Ground Quality
 The
ground has been
built as per ICC
standards and is fit
for organising even
international
matches. Special
emphasis has been
laid on retaining
grass on the
pitches, which is
rare in India. The
soft and lush green
outfield helps in
development of
advanced sliding and
diving fielding
skills.
Ground facilities
The ground boasts of
equipment of
international
standards, like
underground
sprinkler systems,
automated mowers,
rollers, super-sopper,
provision for
stumpvision camera
and snickometer,
synthetic turf etc.
Coaching facilities
The floodlights
enable us to
continue coaching
even after sunset,
which is very
essential as due to
thrust on academics,
a child gets less
time
before sunset. We
use the latest
scientific coaching
methods supported by
internationally
acclaimed software,
periodic video
analysis of various
aspects like
batting, bowling and
fielding
 of
each student and
remedial coaching on
such analysis. The
use of bowling
machines and
pitchvision software
are also used as
effective tools for
remedial measures.
Due care has also
been taken by
creating a cemented,
synthetic wicket to
make use of the
facilities optimally
even during rainy
season. We are also
in the process of
developing indoor
practice facilities.
Players’
facilities
Facilities have been
created for the
players to make
their journey of
development
pleasurable,
enjoyable and
interesting. In this
endeavour of ours,
besides academics,
we have created
facilities for
sports like table
tennis, basket ball,
swimming, tennis
etc., which helps
indirectly in honing
the cricketing
skills and at the
same time does not
make it a monotonous
one-game training.
The library created
at the ground,
consists of books on
cricketing skills,
biographies of
legendary
cricketers, and
other successful
sportsmen and women
from all arenas. By
proving such
enriching reading
material to the
students from an
area of their
interest, it
catalyses them to
develop and nurture
a constructive
reading habit. The
library also stores
videos and
recordings of
historic matches and
performances of
renowned players.
