The Indianapolis Colts are a professional American football franchise competing in the NFL's AFC South division. Founded in 1953 and relocated to Indianapolis in 1984, the organisation plays its home games at Lucas Oil Stadium and operates out of the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center. The franchise is led by Owner & CEO Carlie Irsay-Gordon.
Across its operations, the Colts employ hundreds of people spanning a broad range of functions, including football operations, business administration, media production, ticket sales, and sports entertainment. This makes the organisation one of the larger employers in the Indianapolis area tied to a single professional sports franchise.
Beyond the field, the Colts maintain a significant presence in central Indiana through community outreach programmes. Their flagship initiative, Kicking The Stigma, focuses on raising awareness around mental health and reducing the stigma associated with mental health conditions. The organisation's stated mission is to "entertain, inspire and unite by winning the right way."
