Indianapolis - The 12th largest city in the nation and the capital of Indiana, the Circle City is the center of America’s heartland. More than 65% of the U.S. population lives within a 700 mile radius of Indianapolis. More interstates converge in Indianapolis than in any other city in the U.S., which makes it one of America’s most accessible cities, named “Crossroads of America.”

 

 

Amateur Sports Capital of the World

Indianapolis is certainly deserving of its designation as “Amateur Sports Capital of the World.” The city is known worldwide as the home of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, hosting the Indianapolis 500, Brickyard 400 and the only Formula One race in the United States.

The Hoosier capital has state-of-the-art facilities for numerous sports, including venues that have consistently hosted world-class competitions. In addition, it is home to a number of governing bodies that oversee Olympic teams and national tournaments.

Basketball’s roots go far and long in this state, from "Hoosier Hysteria" to the NBA’s Indiana Pacers. In fact, in 2000 the NCAA made Indianapolis their headquarters and have committed to holding the men’s and women’s Final Four events in the city through 2010.
