Bring the entire sports complex into one coordinated plan. Dharaplay connects athletics, playing fields, courts, indoor sport and supporting facilities for schools, institutions, communities and sports operators across Odisha.
20 sports & activity zones. One site-specific programme.
Choose a programme of 13–20 sports and activities around your land, users and priorities. These are planning options; dedicated areas, shared spaces and operating schedules need a measured master plan.
Start with the users, level of play, land and operating plan. A programme can combine a selection of the 20 sports and activity zones below, rather than treating every space as an isolated project. This is a planning menu, not a fixed package: the number of facilities, their sizes and whether uses can share space must follow a measured master plan.
02
Athletics means more than a running oval
An athletics brief can include sprints, middle- and long-distance races, hurdles and relays, together with long jump, triple jump, high jump, pole vault and throwing facilities. Runways, landing areas, circles, cages and sectors need their own design. An infield used for football does not automatically provide unrestricted space for concurrent throwing events.
03
Separate, share and phase the right spaces
Some courts and indoor halls can accommodate several activities through compatible flooring, clear markings, removable equipment and an operating timetable. Hockey, swimming, archery and throwing areas need specialist consideration. Plan athlete circulation, spectator routes, controlled access, maintenance and emergency access before deciding which facilities can share infrastructure.
04
The infrastructure that makes the programme work
Connect ground levels, drainage outlets, utilities, lighting, changing rooms, accessible toilets, seating and storage to the sports layout. Parking, ticketing, CCTV, refreshments, landscaping and irrigation can be included where required. Establish responsibility for approvals, specialist design, construction, inspection and operation in the scope.
05
A master plan that can grow in phases
If the full investment is phased, reserve future playing areas, service corridors and access from the start. Early courts should not occupy the only future drainage or plant route. Develop a scope schedule for each sport and supporting work so packages can be compared consistently. Certification, competition use and specialist-system testing must be stated for each facility rather than assumed for the entire complex.
Does a 20-sport complex need 20 separate full-size grounds?+
Not necessarily. Some activities can share compatible courts or halls, while others need dedicated facilities. The master plan and operating timetable must establish what can be shared and what needs separation.
Can athletics and a football ground share the same stadium?+
They can be considered in one master plan, but event layouts, infield use, access and operating restrictions must be checked. Throwing events need controlled sectors and scheduling; an oval around a field does not resolve those requirements.
Can development be completed in phases?+
Yes. Reserve the full sports layout, circulation, drainage and utility routes early, then define which playing facilities and amenities belong in each phase.
