INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts hosted a new football competition at their practice facility Tuesday.
The first ever United Flag Classic invited student athletes with and without disabilities to participate together in flag football games.
"For us, it's the interaction with high school football, specifically the flag football and unified flag and Special Olympics, giving these kids a chance to come out and play where the Colts are practicing," said Andy Matis, youth football manager.
