In its latest installment of its “Fuel Tomorrow” campaign from TBWAChiatDay LA, Gatorade is celebrating the fun of sport, underscoring the brand’s belief that when you play for the love of the game, you get the most out of it.
The spot creative was developed based on the National Alliance for Youth Sports reporting that a majority of kids are quitting sports by age 13 because it’s not fun anymore.
Entitled “All For Fun” and directed by Dave Meyers of RadicalMedia, this commercial features some of the brand’s youngest roster athletes to inspire the next generation to have fun while playing sports, including Fernando Tatis Jr., Sydney McLaughlin, Paige Bueckers, Trevor Lawrence and Karl Anthony Towns.
In the spot, each athlete is brought back to when they were kids to depict one of the best parts of playing sports–the camaraderie of the game and falling in love with sport.
