Philadelphia Flyers and Bank of America host wellness event for elementary students

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- The Philadelphia Flyers and Bank of America want to get children moving in the classroom.

Representatives from both organizations hosted a wellness event on Wednesday at Disston Elementary School in Tacony. They launched a Flyers World inside the move-to-learn app, Rallee.

The program is designed to improve students' focus. It delivers quick, personalized brain breaks.

The Flyers say they are also the first professional team to introduce a customized version of the app. It features a "Flyers World" experience, which expands hockey beyond the ice.

Bank of America is donating $70,000 worth of ball hockey equipment to the School District of Philadelphia.
