New Delhi | November 21, 2025: In a landmark partnership poised to revolutionize India’s sports infrastructure landscape, Gallant Sports has signed an exclusive five-year master agreement with CC Grass, the global synthetic turf manufacturer, to introduce Leap™—a revolutionary 100% non-infill artificial turf system—to Indian markets.
This isn’t just another turf deal.
It’s a game-changer for how India plays.
A Partnership for India’s Sports Renaissance
Under the agreement, Gallant Sports will distribute, install, and service CC Grass’s Leap™ non-infill turf across India’s schools, municipal grounds, sports venues, and commercial leisure facilities.
With India expanding sports infrastructure for grassroots and elite sports, this collaboration aims to support rapid deployment of artificial turf that adheres to global specifications—delivering the performance standards India’s athletes deserve.
Nasir Ali, Founder & CEO of Gallant Sports, articulates the vision:
“This alliance is a game-changer for us. We have long believed that world-class sports surfaces are foundational to nurturing talent and delivering safe, high-quality competition venues. With CC Grass’s Leap™ system, we are not just offering turf—we’re delivering a performance ecosystem that matches India’s Olympic & multi-sport ambitions. Over the next five years, we will transform how artificial grass is specified, installed, and serviced in this country.”
John Smith, Spokesperson for CC Grass International, added:
“We’re thrilled to partner with Gallant Sports to bring our Leap™ non-infill turf to India’s expanding sports infrastructure market. India is poised for a sports renaissance, and our technology will support that journey by delivering a surface that reduces maintenance, improves player safety, and provides a sustainable alternative to conventional infill systems. Together, we will redefine standards in artificial turf across the region.”
Why Leap™ Changes Everything

Engineered for Indian Conditions
Leap™’s triple-layer structure consists of:
- Top Standing Layer — Ultra-dense fiber for resilient play
- Stable Lock Layer — Robust curly yarn foundation replacing traditional infill
- Resilient Spring Layer — Functions like mini-springs for dynamic cushioning and impact absorption
The result? A surface engineered specifically for extreme Indian weather, heavy footfall, and multi-sport versatility—from grassroots playgrounds to elite stadiums.

For elite academies and stadiums, it means FIFA-certified performance matching India’s Olympic and multi-sport ambitions.
This partnership represents a strategic commitment: India deserves world-class sports infrastructure. And now, Indian facilities can access it.

Each installation represents more than infrastructure—it represents India’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of athletes on surfaces worthy of their potential.
The Vision Forward
India is at an inflection point. The nation’s sporting ambitions are clear. The infrastructure gap is acknowledged. What was missing was the right technology partner meeting the right implementation partner.
With Leap™ and this historic five-year collaboration, that gap is closing.
