NCAA "Opportunity" (2017) :30 (USA)

"It's not about where you were born, it's not about your gender or the color of your skin. Or whether you're rich, poor on in the middle. no matter what you play, if you have the skill and drive to succeed in school and in sports, we'll provide the opportunity."

This ad is airing durning March Madness unsurprisingly.

It's fun watching the kids dribble and pass and shoot towards camera in all these locations. My favorites are the girl dribbling down streets wearing a hat since it's clearly still winter, and the farm boy dribbling in between the corn fields. Some nice wide-angled match cuts here, too.
