History
On January 16, 2013, the North American Football League announced the upcoming entry into the league of a new club from Indianapolis starting in the 2014 season. The presentation ceremony of the emblem, name and colors of the club was held on April 25, 2013. By October 2013, the club sold over 6 thousand seasonal subscriptions for the upcoming season [1] .
"Indie" is the official nickname of Indianapolis . "Ileven" ("eleven") symbolizes eleven players representing Indiana on the playing field. Also, the name "eleven" pays tribute to the 11th Indiana Infantry Regiment, who fought in the US Civil War [2] .
A checkered pattern on the uniform and on the club’s emblem pays tribute to the Indianapolis racing heritage . The emblem of the club is decorated with the figure of the Victory statue from the historical Monument to soldiers and sailors located in the city center. The star at the base of the emblem, as well as the colors of the club - dark blue and red - duplicate the colors of the official flag of Indianapolis [2] .
