Collector P.S. Leela Alex inaugurated a box cricket turf established at a cost of ₹50 lakh at the District Sports Stadium in Katpadi in Vellore on Friday.

Officials of Sports Development Authority of Tamil Nadu (SDAT), which will maintain the facility, said the turf would help to boost revenue and promote sports at the grassroots-level, especially in rural areas. “The new facility will help budding cricketers in rural areas to get trained in covered nets with cricket markings and floodlights,” said R. Sethuraman, District Sports Officer (Vellore).
