UFC vet Chris Lytle, Indianapolis police vying for $50,000 Pepsi grant for MMA program

Longtime UFC veteran Chris Lytle has paired with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department to create a Police Athletic League club devoted to boxing, wrestling and Brazilian jiu-jitsu.

Designed to provide kids with high-level instruction and academic support and mentoring at no cost, the Indy PAL MMA club is the country's second Police Athletic League program devoted to the disciplines that make up mixed martial arts.

The club has elected not to ask the city for funding and is instead hoping to secure a $50,000 grant from Pepsi's Refresh Everything program - and Lytle and his fellow trainers are turning to the MMA community to ask for support.
