Indianapolis (Indy) Red (501c3) is a professional ultimate team and a part of the Premier Ultimate League (PUL). Red played in the inaugural season of the women’s professional league in 2018. The team is based out of Indianapolis, Indiana, but our team includes players from the surrounding region.

VISION: 

Create opportunities and remove barriers for women, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, and gender fluid athletes to showcase their highest level talent. Promote gender, racial, and economic equity within the sport of ultimate frisbee. Women, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, and gender-fluid athletes belong in athletics and all marginalized youth deserve to dream without boundaries.

Girls and marginalized youth often have a difficult time envisioning themselves in high-level athletics because women, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, and gender-fluid athletes are drastically under-represented in media and in our slowly evolving culture. We want to #BeTheChange and alter this narrative.
