Turf football comes to Tiruchi

Now, small groups of youths can play day and night

To serve the growing interest of youngsters in football, a synthetic turf has come up at K.K. Nagar in the city. Unlike the usual football ground, which requires a huge space, the turf has been established on a 5,000 square feet area, besides facilities for players’ lounge, dressing room, lawns and sanitary arena. The synthetic turf, which resembles a naturally-grown grass ground, was imported from Thailand. The aesthetically designed turf, promoters of the game say, meets the guidelines of Federation of International Football Association (FIFA).
