Some argue that incorporating sports into Anzac Day helps engage younger generations and keeps the memory of those who served alive in a modern context.

The risk lies in trivializing the solemnity of remembrance through commercialization and entertainment.

Sports teams and media outlets benefit from high-profile events on Anzac Day, potentially influencing its cultural significance.

As society evolves, Anzac Day may continue to adapt, balancing traditional ceremonies with contemporary activities that resonate with younger generations while maintaining its solemnity.

The trend towards commercialization will likely persist, but there will be ongoing debates about the balance between remembrance and entertainment.
