The Indianapolis Colts today announced the completion of the “Road to 100,” the team’s effort to recruit 100 Indiana high school girls flag football teams and develop girls flag as a fully sanctioned Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) sport.

The Colts have prioritized flag football to introduce the game to new players and fans, especially girls who traditionally have not had the same opportunities to learn and play the game as boys.

To date, the Colts have recruited 108 Indiana high school teams, representing more than 50 Hoosier cities and towns, to field a girls flag team in 2026.

The newest teams to join include Anderson Prep, Andrean, Angola, Boonville, Bosse, Carroll (Fort Wayne), Charlestown, Clinton Central, Concord, DeKalb, Evansville Central, Evansville Harrison, Evansville North, FJ Reitz, Fairfield, Guerin Catholic, Indiana Math + Science, Jimtown, Lake Central, Lebanon, Logansport, Merrillville, Mishawaka Marian, Mooresville Christian Academy, North Central (Farmersburg), Northview, Portage, Providence, Providence Cristo Rey and South Central.

The Colts, joined by representatives from the NFL and IHSAA, made the announcement during the last day of the NFL FLAG Championships at Grand Park Sport Campus in Westfield.
