What is the NFL Flag Championships in Westfield, Indiana and why is it growing?
Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to Westfield, Indiana, the home of the NFL flag championships on this feel-good Friday. This sport program begins now. sports are outrageous and I'm gonna be honest we had no idea we were walking into here okay I don't think I had any real understanding of what's taking place not only here in beautiful Westfield Indiana if you've never been Grand Park you should certainly come the Colts have their training camp here I don't know who put the money behind this in Indiana but there has been a shit ton of cash invested in this particular part of our state and it is blown up in a huge way we got people from Spain here, Germany. I think I saw some Irish lads here.
I got flag football teams from all over the country, international, 370 teams in total, all competing for national championships. And I would like to say the future, not only for football, but flag football seems to be very bright. I got a chance to ride through a lot of the people here on the way from where the Colts facility is. Shout out to the Colts taking care of us, by the way. Shout out to Conti, Paizon, Kalen Jackson, owner of Indianapolis Colts, will be joining us here in a matter of moments. But as we are driving from the facility over to where our set is, which is kind of an interesting spot, I'm going to be honest, I did not know there was, I thought we were kind of being in an isolated spot.
Back corner. We've got a good group of humans here around us. Manhattan University is here. They have a D1 women's flag football team. Coach Frank and Coach Nicole just came over. It says about 30 teams. They're giving scholarships. Yeah, that's unreal. Love it. that we just talked to, 12, 13 years old. One of the kids spoke very good English because he was born in Dubai. Then he went over to Spain. He was chit-chatting with us basically as translator for the entire group. I was like, how is it over there? Is it big? They're like, no. All of them are like, not yet. And they're like, it's growing. We got a 9U team now. They got a 10U team. So it's like, I think flag football because you don't need the pads. You don't need the field.
You can watch on YouTube, learn the rules pretty quick. You can actually tape these things actually onto the side of you if you really wanted to do it. I think it's a very appetizing level of football for people. Skill level outrageous. I've seen some one-handed catches happening from out. Are they nine years old, these kids that are doing this thing? So you assume the future of the NFL and the future of football as a whole is going to have a higher skill set because of what these kids are doing. I saw a 10-year-old girl spit. I mean, it was maybe a 27-yard ball. And I'm like... Yeah, right. Everybody's only going to get better if you start really thinking about it. So that means these Spain teams and these Irish teams and these German teams, it's nice that they're getting a look early at what we're going to do in the Olympics.
That's exactly right.
What we're going to do in the Olympics. I believe our boys and girls watching. Now, that Germany team looked really good.
They did.
Tall. They looked very, very good. The Irish lads looked like they had a lot of grit. But I do believe football becoming an international sport, an Olympic sport potentially, is a good thing. This is going to be the avenue. And I think that's why you see the NFL investing so much in all of this. Whenever we do the draft spectacular, you know, obviously our show is licensed through ESPN. That seems to be a conversation point that is kind of missing in everything. But we are the ones that kind of have to deal with that. And obviously, Mike Foss, who has been an incredible asset for us, has assisted. But our deal with the NFL, whenever we go to a draft spectacular or go to a show or maybe do something with the NFL in the future, it's like that happens between us and them.
And it was amazing to hear everybody from top down, commish all the way down, just going like, hey. Flag football, anything you can do to kind of help us with that, we'd love it.
