In a significant move to enhance sports infrastructure in Agartala, the Agartala Sports Department, in collaboration with Gallant Sports, has successfully developed a state-of-the-art FIH-certified hockey ground. The project, part of the Khelo India Scheme, marks a new era for hockey in the region, providing top-notch facilities for athletes to train and compete.

The journey to this transformation wasn’t easy. The project faced a major challenge early on due to an uneven ground level, with some areas being more than a foot higher than others. Gallant Sports took on this challenge, meticulously levelling the ground to meet the required standards. The uniqueness of this project lies in the fact that it is not only a standard-size hockey ground but also one that is certified by the Federation of International Hockey (FIH), ensuring it meets the highest global standards.

Nasir Ali, CEO of Gallant Sports, shared his thoughts on the project, stating, “We are proud to be part of the Agartala Hockey Project. It was crucial to deliver a hockey ground that meets international standards, and now, with the FIH certification, we have succeeded in creating a space that will nurture talent and inspire young players”Through projects like this, the region is poised to become a breeding ground for future hockey stars, ensuring long-term benefits for the community and the nation.
