After dusk, a school in Srinagar comes alive with dance and music as students celebrate the first AstroTurf for budding footballers in the school. In a city which has almost no night life, the ground is equipped for night matches as well.

"Any and everyone across the valley is free to come and use this facility. We have a website where anyone can book their slot even 10 minutes before they decide to play," said Vishal Singh of Woodland School.
