Engineering High-Density EVA Interlocking Mats, Wooden Post Anchoring, and Seamless Indoor/Outdoor PU Courts.
Kho-Kho is an indigenous sport requiring high-intensity sprints, sudden chases, and rapid, low-angle pivots around end posts.
Elite International Sports is a premier sports infrastructure developer, specialized in **certified Kho-Kho court construction**. In strict compliance with the **Kho-Kho Federation of India (KKFI)** and **Asian Kho-Kho Federation (AKKF)** standards, we construct high-performance indoor and outdoor courts for professional stadiums, school complexes, training academies, and municipal facilities.
From a sports engineering perspective, Kho-Kho surfacing must provide reliable foot grip and excellent shock absorption. Runners change direction suddenly and dive to touch opponents. Traditional mud courts are highly abrasive and become dusty or muddy, while hard concrete surfaces can cause joint sprains and shin splints. Our **interlocking EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) mats** and seamless indoor PU flooring systems absorb vertical landing force, protecting players' joints while providing non-slip traction for quick turns.
We install three primary Kho-Kho surfacing systems: high-density interlocking EVA mats (25mm to 30mm thickness), seamless multi-sport polyurethane (PU) cushion floors, and traditional natural clay grounds. Our turnkey services cover base civil leveling, concrete casting, post socket installation, mat laying, and boundary marking.
Our Kho-Kho court surfacing is engineered to handle intensive sliding and high-speed turns, with solid anchor post installations.
Our 25mm to 30mm EVA mat profiles absorb impact energy during chases and dives, protecting player knees and elbows.
Mat wear courses are textured to provide secure foot traction, enabling rapid pivots without slip injuries.
End post sockets are grouted 400mm deep in concrete, keeping the wooden posts secure under heavy player contact.
All lanes, sitting blocks, post lines, and boundaries are marked precisely using wear-resistant white or yellow paint.
We install three primary types of Kho-Kho playing surfaces depending on tournament requirements:
The standard choice for indoor tournaments. Reversible EVA puzzle mats (25mm-30mm thick) provide excellent cushioning and quick assembly.
A permanent seamless flooring system featuring SBR rubber cushion bases finished with a polyurethane wear course. Highly durable, suitable for multi-sport arenas.
Constructed using local clay soil mixed with fine sand. Leveled, rolled, and hydrated. A cost-effective solution for outdoor school playgrounds.
Outdoor modular interlocking tiles with suspended grid structures. Provide rapid drainage and consistent grip for outdoor school complexes.
Installing Kho-Kho mats requires a level concrete subgrade to prevent mat shift and post movement:
Excavating the court site and compacting the subgrade soil to establish a flat base.
Pouring a 100mm reinforced concrete base slab over a vapor-barrier sheet, finished to a flat profile.
Coring the concrete slab at official post coordinates, and grouting heavy steel sleeves 400mm deep to secure the wooden posts.
Sanding the concrete surface, washing away dust, and testing moisture content to ensure a dry base.
Positioning the EVA puzzle mats from the center out, interlocking teeth using a rubber mallet.
Marking lanes, boundary lines, and sitting blocks using white paint. Installing the wooden end posts in their sleeves.
Inspecting seam locks, verifying post vertical alignment and line dimensions, followed by handover.
High-density Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate foam mats with Shore Hardness calibrated for sports impact.
Reinforced M20 concrete slab paved with precise grade controls to provide structural strength.
Kiln-dried Teak or Sal wood posts, turned to 90-100mm diameter, with smooth sand finishes.
Non-toxic, high-visibility white compound paint formulated to adhere to EVA surfaces.
Heavy vinyl-wrapped polyurethane foam sleeve pads to cover post bases and protect players.
Heavy-gauge galvanized steel sleeves grouted deep in concrete to anchor the wooden posts.
High-density EVA foam cushions hard landings, protecting player joints.
Interlocking puzzle teeth hold mats together, preventing joint gaps.
Mats can be easily disassembled, washed, and transported for outdoor setups.
