The original land is prepared
as per the details given in the preparation sub base for Asphalt courts.
After the water bound macadam surface the crushed lime stone (porbundur
stone) is used to cover the coating. 40 to 60 tons of lime stone per court
is required. The crushed limestone is first rolled dry, and leveled. The
water is slowly added and rolled till the paste start coming from below.
After allowing the court to “breath” and dry for few days.
The court is then scrubbed, cleaned and a cow dung paste is spread on
the court is allowed to dry. After 3 to 4 coatings the court is ready
to play.
After the monsoon, the
cow dung and sand is cleaned and removed. The court is slightly dug and
the 3” rabbit is then spread and rolled dry. Over this 3”
limestone is spread and rolled dry. The depressions are filled in and
rolled first day and then add water and rolled the area with 10 ton roller.
Allow the surface to dry and then scrap the upper surface and roll the
entire area with hard roller. Over this cleaned and rolled surface, a
thin layer of cow dung is spread. Over this a thick layer of cow dung
is spread. Over this thick layer (2 nos.) shall be applied. Each layer
should be applied only after the drying of the earlier layer. Around 5
ton per court of limestone is required.
