The First of Its Kind, World-Class Terrace Sports Venue Comes To City

HotFut Hyderabad Kicks off

With every inch of urban living space being transformed into residential or commercial real estate, using city areas for sports or play may soon become a thing of the past. Beating this despair comes HotFut, South India’s first world-class terrace sports venue in Hyderabad. Situated on the terrace of the ten storey White House - Block III building in Begumpet, HotFut provides children and adults in Hyderabad the safe and sophisticated space that they yearn for, to play and exercise alike.

About HotFut

HotFut is a social-commercial enterprise, started by Nikhil Dubois and Pavit Singh in Pune. Since their launch in 2012, the organisation is making consistent strides in the domain of sports development and education. HotFut focuses on providing world-class sports infrastructure and a holistic sports development programme to city-dwellers. The company pioneered the 5-a-side turf football concept in Pune, currently operating four pitches in the city. Their economically viable model combines state-of-the-art infrastructure with fine-tuned technical & management systems, that are aided by talented and passionate personnel.

Enabling sports development at grassroot levels for players of all genders and ages is a long term goal of HotFut. Using their world-class arenas as assets, HotFut implements community engagement with the community through sport by integrating their five operational verticals:

Arenas: Serving as the backbone of HotFut, the football arenas provide world-class infrastructure for sporting activities.

Academy: The Academy focuses on providing structured, specialised, high-quality sports education and amenities for young players.

Events: Apart from their primary Pay & Play concept, HotFut organises and manages local and national level grassroot sporting events across levels of age and ability.

Merchandise: Fulfilling consumer requirements for specialised sports-related equipment, the vertical focuses on providing a comprehensive space for sports-related needs.

HotFut Foundation: Increasing the accessibility of sporting arenas and sports training to underprivileged children, the HotFut Foundation focuses on using sports for development for children whose environments do not offer them these opportunities.

Elevating Football in the Twin Cities

HotFut aims to increase sports engagement in the Twin Cities by offering the facility for hosting corporate and casual tournaments, leagues and sporting events. Further, HotFut brings with its facilities the highly acclaimed Arsenal Soccer School football coaching camp, that focuses on long-term systematic coaching and mentorship for budding footballers. The programme aims at building a nurturing space for players and their families to avail quality guidance to hone their football skills through various ages and skill levels.

HotFut’s two pitches, measuring 60x90 ft, are installed atop the 10 storey White House – Block III building in Begumpet. The entire playing space is completely enclosed by extremely durable and high quality nets with a height of 25 feet, providing a secure, uninterrupted play area. Both pitches are surrounded by a steel I-Beam and Truss structure, which, together with the nets, create an infrastructure that is both secure and grand to play in. Both pitches are installed with 3rd Generation FIFA 2-Star-rated artificial grass which provides consistent bounce and controlled ball roll. The non-abrasive fibres and rubber in-fill make it safe for play and offers a far greater freedom of movement for players. Along with the nets, the foam-padded rebound walls all along the pitch’s sides provide protection and a unique non-stop game environment that is sure to bring new joy to all footballers bringing the popular European cage-football concept to the Twin Cities.

The pitches are ideal for five-a-side football (5 players on each team). The arena is open to patrons of all genders and ages, with easy options to make current and advance bookings for single or multiple hours, for entire or multiple days, including options for private or corporate events. The fun is not limited to only football lovers – HotFut looks forward to making the sports arena available for a variety of sporting activities, including gully Cricket, Kabbadi, Kho-Kho, Volleyball, Yoga or other sporting activities, as per patron request.

Partners Speak

“The idea came to us as we have been footballers all our lives. We know that terrace and cage football arenas are used extensively in countries like Japan, Germany and Singapore, and we have experienced them on our tours abroad. When Nikhil Dubois and Pavit Singh of HotFut, reached out to us about expanding to Hyderabad, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to bring this premier, yet convenient football experience to our hometown. It took us five months to build the two pitches and the peripheral infrastructure. The arenas will be open to public use soon after the formal launch”, explains Danesh, of the Hyderabadi trio of Danesh Mistry, Youhan Mistry and Ranjan Matthew, who have partnered with HotFut Sports.

“This rooftop pitch is mainly for budding footballers and those who are unable to pursue their favourite sport because of the lack of grounds and playing spaces in the heart of the city”, adds Ranjan Matthew. The arena also comes as a welcome change for players who currently use the dust bowls of hard-mud grounds around the city, without other options.

Patrons and enthusiasts can finally play their beloved sports in true world-class conditions, accessing a convenient and affordable sporting experience like never before. “Having access to a dedicated, high-quality sports arena is very exciting for players and sports enthusiasts alike.” HotFut is a national brand with an established presence in Pune, Hyderabad and Mumbai. “We want to take this wonderful concept to more cities like Delhi, Goa, Chennai, Bangalore & Kolkata”, informed Youhan Mistry.
