03.6.2 Orientation.
▪ Generally, the events starts in evening and general
games starts in evening and morning, so the East –
west orientation is not preferrable because sun
movement is from east to west which will obstruct
the players eyes.
▪ North – south orientation is the best suited one for
almost all games.
▪ North light should be provided because seating
games doesn’t require window lights. It may
obstruct the players play.
▪ Swimming pool needs side lights, so large openings
are provided, and other games requires the all-
rounded light at height, so windows are provided at
the back seating.
