2 former champions trying to announce legacies, 2 newcomers attempting to disrupt the Champions Cup status quo. And so we begin with the 2021 2022 winners Clarendon College against first time semifinalists Heidel Hei. The Anthony Spaulding sports complex is where we are for this semifinal contest. Massive moment for these two. Welcome to live coverage on Sportsmax 2, UEFA Champions League live on Sportsmax. Here they come. Clarendon, an identity defined, steeped in history, plastered on the present, a most attractive force, quality. Alongside them, Heidel. This is only the beginning of what they hope will be a dynastic journey. Fill your cups ready up. We're that much closer to drama. Semifinal 1 in the 2023 ISSA Champions Cup. Ricardo Chambers and Lejay Williams for your listening pleasure. Clarendon College, Heidel for your viewing delight. Yeah, this is a huge game. Heidel their first time here. Clarendon looking to win their second Champions Cup title. They'll have to get to the final first. And this Heidel team have been knocking down barriers this season. Already into the Manning Cup final. Their first time there in over 10 seasons. They're looking to create a first in this Champions Cup, but Clarendon College have been mighty impressive this season. Can anyone knock off what they are trying to achieve, which is this triple crown, the Dacosta Cup, the Champions Cup and the Olivia Shield in one season. That's what they want. Can they achieve it? They'll have to cross this hurdle first. They go through the official aspect of proceedings. A meet and greet with the dignitaries, including sponsors and officials from the Inter-Secondary School Sports Association, ISSA. The teams will greet each other. And this is probably as friendly as they will be for the next 90 plus minutes. At the end of it all, one of these teams will taste defeat. Cartarelle will lead the official sealed by the man in the middle. As the first assistant, Andre Smith as the second assistant to Maria Frances, the fourth official. Let's have a look at the starting line-ups then. And we begin with Clarendon College. Roche Porell is usually in goal, a back four. Full backs, Daniel Clark and Atibo Green. Nation, both Barrett has been brilliant at centre-back this season alongside Devonte Hodges. Malachi Douglas, the captain, has the Andre Gallimore and Tiaan Kupi in midfield with a fabulous front three of Christopher Hall, Kahim Dixon and Jamil Ashley. They are coached by Lenworth Teacher Hyde. A typical 4-3-3 for Clarendon College. Kaim Dixon of top 41 goal contributions. He's looking to add to that today. Hyde, boys, no doubt ready for this semifinal as well. Tajarelli, the former Kingston College man, starts in goal once again for them. Seems as if they'll go with a back five today. Jorma Gordon, Michael Forbes, Joseph Brightley, Gabrielle Seaport and Daron Campbell, Kylan Smith, the captain, Ronaldo Barrett and Dante Stewart in the middle with Amaria Henry and Dante Brooks up front. They are coached by Devon Anderson. Yeah, world of talent in this Hydel unit. Ronaldo Barrett, of course, Amaria Henry. This team is very lethal when the time is right. The two captains, Ronaldo Barrett and Malachi Douglas had their say with the officials. The officials go through their final bit of preparation before the start of this one. It's the Champions Cup semifinal one. Later on, Kleinmure versus Kingston College, another cracking encounter. There are those who believe that the Dacosta Cup final already set will become the Champions Cup final as well. There is Gahim Dixon, 25 goals this season, plus a love of fear with the Champions Cup. Can he come to the party for Clarendon College once again? The boy from Trenchdown so close to home in the collars of CC. We don't have a capacity crowd by any stretch of the imagination, but it is expected to grow throughout the course of the afternoon. It is decent support and we do have a light drizzle at the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex at the moment ahead of kickoff. Field looks good enough to withstand whatever rain we have this afternoon. Clarendon College versus Hydel, Champions Cup semifinal one. Carl Terrell getting ready to send this contest underway. Two teams still in with a shot of winning the Triple Crown. Clarendon College already in the Dacosta Cup final. Hydel already in the Manning Cup final. But at the end of this one, only one will still have a chance of winning the coveted three. The domestic title, the All Island knockout for which they play today. And of course, the Olivia Shield between the winners of the Manning and Dacosta Cup competitions. The action has already started pretty fierce. Bolt Barrett, of course, not shy of making challenges, already putting one in on his the striker that he'll be facing most today, Omario Henry. Throwing goes to Clarendon College, however. Intelligent and decisive players, Nashor and Bolt Barrett has had a tremendous season at centre back for this Clarendon College team. And they're looking for another big game from him this afternoon. Douglas College in position. Jamil Ashley gets position of the football. And we're back into the fence for Barrett. Douglas makes himself available and then turns it further right side. Daniel Clark for Ashley. Clarendon College doing what they do best, which is to possess the football. Here's Jamil Ashley again. Tion Kupi back to Bolt Barrett in defence. Employing all the patients in the world, then the long dive and all over to Ashley. Thought for a second that he had done brilliantly to keep it in play, but it goes into touch. Highdale will have to do a lot of work, especially those wide midfielders. At first we thought that they were going to line up with three defenders or five. It is a similar system to what we saw against Kingston College in the Manning Cup semifinals at 4-1-2-1-2, diamond shape. Only thing that there is keeper. And now the Barrett seems to be playing at the tip of it instead of at the base. Trying to get the ball out of their area. Highdale. They will be pressed like they have not been for the duration of this campaign. Here is Christopher Hall. The sats to go for a left-footed shot that's high over the top, making his intentions clear. This experience that number eight for Clarendon College. He is certainly not shy of shooting from anywhere. Knows he has the skill to execute 12 goals and 12 assists this season. He has really let his experience show so far. There are so many Talismatic players on this Clarendon College team, and they would do really well to get the better of them. There is Lenworth Hyde has brought tremendous success to this Clarendon College community. They have been in four of the last five the Costa Cup finals. Devon Anderson, what an occasion for him. It's almost as if he's come full-circuit at Williams. He was at Hall of Trinity in 2014 when they upset Clarendon College in the first round of the Super Cup as it was then. They went all the way to penalties at Sabina Park, and Hall of Trinity won that encounter and went on to the final where they lost 2-0 to Maron in Jamaica College set up, filled with talent and quality and class. Yeah, and I think he has improved as a manager. Devon Anderson, a lot of nuances to his system this season that we weren't seen before. So in addition to already being a really good coach, he has further improved, and with this talented Hyde squad, we see a lot of evidence of it. Clarendon College continuing to possess the football. All back to Hodges in defense. Daniel Clark, the left full back, dribbles forward, has a few options, decides to go back to T on QP. Hodges up to assist, plays the diagonal, asking Ashley to run onto it, but it's well marshaled behind by Joseph Brightley, and a goal kick coming up by Michael Forbes and a goal kick coming up for Heidel. Yeah, a lot has been said about Ronaldo Barrett in the midfield, and Mario Henry up top, but I think Michael Forbes has been nothing short of spectacular for Heidel playing in a myriad of positions. I saw a game with him earlier this season where he played in both, in all three positions, attack defense and in the midfield, so he's extremely versatile, excellent on the ball, and I think he adds a lot to this Heidel unit. Almost six minutes in, and I think we're starting to see the pattern of how this one is likely to play out. Heidel in possession, let's see how long they can maintain it for. Clarendon College again. They don't mind being patient, this Clarendon College team. Here's QP, Ashley, strings a lovely ball forward, just couldn't get the right boot onto that, Tajare Lee, reddit well, the 19-year-old made that a warning for this Heidel backline. The excellent movement from Dixon getting in behind Michael Forbes, he was good work by Tajare Lee, it had to be done coming up off of his line. Part of what makes Kahim Dixon so good as a forward, his movement off the ball is exemplary. He gets into those in the pockets, and he always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Ashley for QP. Here is Hall, seems as if he's brought his shooting boots this afternoon, but he hasn't hit the target yet after a couple of shots. Paul Barrett battling for it over on the far side, and gives up a free kick to Darren Campbell. Heidel will have an opportunity to go further forward. Yeah, but they've taken it quickly. Although we are seeing Clarendon with the ball a lot, Heidel are a team that like to possess the ball well as we saw multiple examples of against Kingston College on Saturday. The captain Barrett for Smith, and here's an opportunity for Amaria Henry, but he couldn't get a shot away. Good challenge coming in, and the clearance coming pretty quickly. Seaborn battling for it, but he loses that battle against Ashley. Now comes to Deandre Gallimore. Heidel back in position with the captain Barrett. Hall for Douglas, back in college with possession of the football. Here is Deandre QP. They say he does the dirty work, and it doesn't look as if there's a lot of dirty work done in this Clarendon college team. They're clean as a whistle. Gallimore goes for the lift for Ashley. Daniel Clark is up in support. Ashley decided again to go into him, but just well enough to win a free kick. As I mentioned, because of the narrow formation that Heidel are playing, I think it's going to leave their full box isolated to V1 at several and several occasions. We've already seen the evidence of that. Seaborn having his hands full and I assume it will be the same for Deron Campbell on the other side. Free kick coming up. Tejareli tries to have a close. Look, this one comes curling in. Goes up the crossbar. That was a terrific effort. Yeah, I had a feeling he was going to go straight for goal, you know. Good one in by Gallimore, and I think the touch might have been essential from Tejareli. He might have a lot more of that to defend Tejareli as the first corner kick of the contest is coming up for Clarendon College. They have numbers inside the box CC. Quarter kick whipped in and headed away and cleared further away. Heidel trying to make a break with Amaria Henry. Oh, that's a lot. The ball played over on the far side and Rashid Barel had to be alert to get the clearance in and now hold for Clarendon College. What are his options? Dicks this one inside the box. Was asking Nashon Ball Barrett to make the run and the Clarendon College center back couldn't get there before Tejareli. Yeah, both goalkeepers have had to be very aware and quick off their line so far in this one. Not the best of touches there by Seaborn. Has scored this season Ball Barrett, so was a little surprised to see him in that position. Atiba Green for Clarendon College. Barrett will be so critical for this Heidel team. Henry couldn't take that one down. Moving from end to end now. Here's Clark. Seaborn cleaned up for Heidel. Gordon decides to go long. Ball Barrett was trying to watch it into the arms of goalkeeper Barel and that could have ended up messy for Clarendon College. Thankfully it didn't for them. Yeah, it was good persistent work by Brooks. Oh, here's a lovely ball played in and a super save. What a chance for Heidel to go in front. Barel equal to the task. And it's Barrett again with a lovely ball over the top. And I believe it was done to a steward. Yeah, on the swivel. And that's why it's important for your goalkeeper to be very active off of his line. Made himself extremely big. Not much to aim for, but that's still a fantastic reflex save by the Clarendon College custodian. Clarendon College trying to compose themselves after that one. Here's Daniel Clark in position now. Hull has switched flanks. He's no over on the left. Kajim Dixon attacking on the right. His cross not cleared initially by Seaborn, but they do well to get it away. Hodges does brilliantly to win possession initially, but then inadvertently poking the ball out for a throw. Yeah, Hodges, another part of that really good back partnership for Clarendon College. I think he man both by ductile each other perfectly. The one who stays back a bit more composed doesn't like to come out and tackle, although we saw it there from Devante Hodges that goes against Barrett who's a very active defender. Devante Hodges has scored three goals this season for Clarendon College. None more important than the one he netted at St Elizabeth Technical. In the round of 16, there's a shot fired over the top. Approaching 15 minutes in still no goals in this semifinal encounter between Clarendon College and Heidel from the Anthony Spalding Sports Complex. It's another through pass from Ronaldo Barrett. Really is effective from all over the midfield. Henry unable to put that one on target. Rightly committing that infringement.  The deepest line midfielder. Dixon Fahal trying to play a quick one-two. Heidel escape with possession of the football. Seaport was looking for Dante Stewart. Daniel Clark took control for CC. Malachi Douglas the captain scored their long goal in regular time in the Dacosta Cup semifinal against Garver-Maceo. Tough match that was at the weekend. Here's Douglas. Too much weight for Ashley. Yeah a bit static in attack there from Clarendon College. That's something that we hear very often. First semifinal in the Issa Champions Cup for 2023. Rely from the Anthony Spalding Sports Complex in Kingston. Heidel in the Champions Cup semifinals for the first time in their history. Clarendon College making a return. Last year they faced Kingston College at this stage of the competition and it turned out to be the Dijon Whisper Richard show. This time around Clarendon College will want it to be all about them. Having said that, Kahim Dixon did score a peach of a goal in that semifinal. A bicycle kick consolation goal that would make even Garnacha proud. Maybe Garnacha was inspired by that strike. That one got away from Dixon. Hall battles for it and wins it for Clarendon College. There's a cross coming in with a chance to shoot Dixon. To break to anyone else but Kahim Dixon. It was a good chance initially for Gallimore. Hit the bar and Heidel failed to clear their lines and in what is some part of a homecoming for Kahim Dixon. He has marked it with a very important goal and on this gloomy gloomy day he has taken a leaf out of the book from the Temptations because he has found sunshine and has given Clarendon College a one-nil lead in this Champions Cup semifinal. Tajarrily no doubt disappointed in the Heidel goal but this is a moment for Clarendon College's number 13 Kahim Dixon. In his seventh Champions Cup match he has just scored his fifth goal. He has one assist as well and that is if you are not counting the penalty that he won to get them the first round victory in their title winning season of 2021-2022 or the FPL type assist that he would have had against St. George's College in the quarter-final last week but what a storied Champions Cup career he's had. An important part of the Clarendon College team that won in 2021-2022 as a 16-year-old scored in both the semifinal and the final and was the tournament MVP and two seasons on he is still causing havoc for opposing backlines that was an opportunity he would have expected to take. Yeah and I'm sure he would have wanted to take that one it was an excellent pass through and once he got his head on it he should have and probably should have scored. 26 goals this season for Kahim Dixon. He has now netted two in the Champions Cup, 24 in the Dacosta Cup, Heidel in position. They must now find a way to come from behind in this one. Ronaldo by there looking for options couldn't find any. Having to drop a bit deeper to impact the game. The Heidel captain. Yeah here he is again getting the pass from Forbes. The options limited and the ball is stolen by Paul and a yellow card coming out the first one of the encounter. They're on Campbell over on that side. I said that they would have their hands full from wing areas Heidel. A lot of work for them to do and they did that work really well against Kingston College in the Manning Cup semifinal. But I think in this one they'll have to do even more. Don't know the Sportsman's App today from the Google Play or the App Store and they catch the closing stages of the Schoolboy Football season from Jamaica. This is it's the Champions Cup semifinal action today as Daniel Clark dribbles forward and picks out Jamil Ashley Ashley with the cross. It's not handed well. Dixon with the right footed effort and got a block in and a corner kick will be coming up for Carmen College as they continue to put the pressure on this Heidel team. And it was Michael Forbes who got the pivotal block in to take that one away from the target. Yeah Heidel causing a lot of their own problems so far especially defensively failing to clear their lines. That's what led to the goal and we saw there again. Here's the corner kick. The shot from Ashley is cleared off the line. That was really close to being 2-0 to Clarendon College. Oh the ball is given away here to Dante Brooks. Lifting it forward looking for Henry and the Clarendon College back line does the business. Heidel have had one fabulous chance. It came to Dante Stewart. Came face to face with Rashid Borell in the Clarendon College goal. Borell coming up with a fabulous save to deny the Heidel number 22. And Clarendon College have created a number of opportunities since they scored and would be disappointed not to have taken any of them. Yeah I'm sure Heidel are ruined the fact that they missed out on that golden chance to take the lead. Clarendon for Ashley. Clarendon College in possession. Teon Cupid. Malachi Douglas the captain. Douglas thinks about a shot. Picked out Tijara Lee with brilliant accuracy. Yeah straight to the goalkeeper that effort but Clarendon showing that they aren't shy about shooting from range. Henry does well for Heidel. The option seems so limited whenever they have the football Heidel and invariably Clarendon College regained possession. Here is Daniel Clark. Hodges. Atiba Green. Christopher Hall. Douglas. Here is another shot. Daniel Clark with the left footed effort and Tijara Lee comes up with a save once again. Clarendon really turning up the pressure at this point. Heidel I think have to do a job now of really just stabilizing the game for themselves. The Clarendon College players being given so much time on the football and Heidel fortunate that CC are not further ahead in this one. 20th minute of this Champions Cup semifinal and at the moment it seems all Clarendon College it has started to rain quite heavily at the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex. Here is Devonte Hodges. Ford Daniel Clark who just tested Tijara Lee with his left foot. Jamil Ashley on with a cross inside but not close enough to the arriving Kaheem Dixon who has made the difference so far. Heidel do have quality on the bench. Deshaun Henry their leading scorer this campaign didn't start today and neither did Keane Jackson and so you'd like to think that at some point the coach will go to them as Forbes ventures forward for Heidel maybe a stroke of luck his way. Here is Smith now and the flag up offside 29th minute of this encounter. And that's just a small piece of the skill set of Michael Forbes. Long-boasting run from center back. Unfortunate for him he lost his footing. Tallest player on the field. Yeah I think by some margin maybe even taller than you Ricardo. It's not a maybe. He definitely is. Dixon for Clarendon College. Hodges. Heidel's throw as we're upon to hit half an hour in this one. Forbes but it's given a way to haul. Was looking for Dixon. Bolt Barrett what a player he is. I slotted into this Clarendon College backline with ease. Yeah often times when we see national representatives playing at this level the class is evident and it's no different with Deshaun Bolt Barrett. Top top quality at center back. You don't need a long look to realize how good he is. That was well won by Gabriel Seaborn. Amaria Henry. It's Clarendon College's ball and Cupid goes long. Was looking for Kahim Dixon. Comes right back the other way. Ronaldo Barrett with a left footed drive. Well wide of the mark. Yeah not one of his best efforts and he knows that he could have and should have done better on that occasion. Player of his talents. Also a national under 17 representative Ronaldo Barrett. His first year of schoolboy football is a part or is a part of the Cavalier Academy. So easy for them when they're in possession of the football Clarendon College. Douglas for Hall goes out wide to Daniel Clark gets it inside along the ground and Gallimore gets the call against him in that battle with Dante Stewart. He's had to drop deep so often so far today Ronaldo Barrett. Yeah because of the good press and shape of Clarendon College. Excellent pass though. Picked out Seaborn with a plumb. Heidel will maintain position through Dante Stewart. Here's the captain Barrett again. Has such wonderful vision. The Heidel number eight. Yeah and the type of passes to go along with said vision. Really talented player and an after ball. I've been very vocal actually in saying that he's one of the best players in schoolboy football. I do think in actuality he's the best player in urban area schoolboy football. But the cast of the players have something to say about him having the overall title. 35th minute of this semifinal. Clarendon College still with the advantage and they have possession of the football. Ashley has gone over on to the right side of the park. Cops face to face with Darren Campbell still possession CC. Christopher Hall for Daniel Clark. Malachi Douglas cuts inside. Has it on the right foot. Douglas gets a good curler in and Caheem Dixon missed it again. Could have easily been three of ready for the Clarendon College number 13 inches away for him but Clarendon still pressing on. Dixon again can't get the header on target. Caheem Dixon trying to lead Clarendon College to their second Champions Cup title in three seasons. It was integral in them winning their first scoring and assisting in the semifinal scoring the lone goal in the final against Dintill technical. Well they sure do enjoy their football in this part of the land. They have come from far to witness today's semifinal and what we have seen already is one call Christopher Hall laying it off to Caheem Dixon. Dixon picking his spot and hitting it beautifully after Deandre Gallimore had a glorious chance to make it 1-0. Dixon took the opportunity when it fell for him. His fifth Champions Cup call in three seasons is 26th goal of this campaign second in the Champions Cup this tournament and the Clarendon College 1-0 as they approach the halftime break. Is a deserved lead as well. They have created a bulk of the chances, have had a bulk of the possession and all in all have been the better team so far but Heidel have had their chances as well. Good chances also but since the goal I think I've really struggled to get a foothold in the game. Heidel, Seaborn, Barrett couldn't get that one on the control and like we've seen so often in this contest the football is back with Clarendon College and they can find teammates with consummate ease. Sometimes it seems like an exhibition. Here's Daniel Clare. All spreads this one forward for Christopher Hall. Hall gets inside the box and Michael Forbes in the way again and it goes behind for a corner kick but a pivotal intervention from the big number five for Heidel although I think Christopher Hall will be slightly disappointed that he didn't produce a better delivery. I think he should have taken a bit more time to pick out a pass here. Christopher Hall had all the time in the world really but yeah it's a very important interception from Forbes. Really good skill. He has ballhawk. Corner kick whipped in. Dixon went for the bicycle kick again. Apparently that's the only successful at the national stadium. Missed that one completely. Here is Dante Stewart for Heidel. Came on the pressure and lost possession of the football. Hodges. Clarendon College player down. Looks like the captain Douglas. Play goes on. Douglas in trouble here. Holding on to the right knee and Heidel of possession of the football with their captain Barrett. No Clarendon College win possession. Let's see what happens. Play continues. Dante Stewart intercepted in midfield. Barrett spreads it left side for Smith and Heidel on their way. Paul Barrett with defending to do and does it brilliantly denying Amaria Henry getting a cross in. Yeah it's not many centre backs in the competition that can keep up with Henry for pace but by the excellent to recover there. Only conceding a corner and this might be a really big chance. Their first corner of the game Heidel. This might be a really big chance for them to get back into the game. Especially with Michael Forbes launching himself forward. Amaria Henry whips in the corner kick high. Too much pace on it but his captain does well to read it. Forbes now in position for Heidel ball Barrett having him on the constant pressure and when all the Barrett was in space hoping that the ball would have come to him it didn't but they do have a throw. Heidel Gabriel Seaborne the 18 year old fires that throw in Stewart takes it down well on to always against him in that situation. Heidel maintaining a nice at a period of possession here. Darren Campbell for Smith. Look at how much pressure is put on the Heidel players when they get possession of the football but they do well to get this one to Barrett. Barrett does brilliantly to stay on his feet all 360 and gets going gets taken down and wins a free kick. That's brilliant work from the Heidel captain. And that's just a small glimpse of his talents found himself in a sticky situation during Aldo Barrett. He did really well to evade all of that pressure and then win his team a foul. Not many players at this level could have gotten out of this situation and rightly so Malachi Douglas was saying no but that looks like a free kick to me. And it will be Amaria Henry to strike this one scored a lovely lovely goal in the Manning Cup semifinal. Started his high school career at Calibar. Amaria Henry transferred to Heidel in 2021. Now looking to take them to glory fires this one into the wall does well to get close to the follow-up but the clearance comes all the way out to Joe Mcgordon. Nice period here for Heidel in the closing stages of the first half. Wolpert also always so calm and composed at the back. Reads the game really well. Calimo are battling for it. Oh does well to win it. Hall trying to get the ball from Seaporn does well enough to win a throw. For the fourth minute of this semifinal it hasn't been electric but it's been watchable. Daniel Clark does well. The cross was not a great one though and now Ronaldo Barrett for Heidel trying to play the quick ball forward and ball Barrett in the way again. Attila Green for Clarenin College. Cupid Douglas the captain. Hodges will try his luck. That was a defender's throw. Yeah he's never shy about taking shots from distance. He is his father's son after all. Vante Hodges three goals on the season and they tend to be extremely important. That one would have been as well. Carenin College in many ways will be disappointed that they're not at least tuning up heading into the halftime break. Heidel will feel that although they have been outplayed in this first stop for the score to only be 1-0 they're very much still in it. 45th minute and we look to the fourth official to see how much time will be added on at the end of the first stop. Paul wins it in midfield. Can't keep it in play though. Two minutes to be added at the end of the first Gabriel Seaporn with the throw and then slammed that one in two. Christopher Hall who again has switched flanks and is now operating on the left which means actually will be on the right. There he is part of the winning team in 2021-2022 as well. Christopher Hall scored in the semifinal. Hodges sends it long. A team of Korean picks it up but it was more wide. Dixon, nifty little player has better passes in him than that though. Holding his head there, Caim Dixon I'm not quite sure what happened. Of course the play has to be stopped for a head injury. A bit dramatic I think that one from Caim Dixon but he's a showman. On his way to Hollywood if ever football doesn't work out. Ken Heindale pulled one back before the break. They only have seconds to do so or Clarence and College will take this one advantage going to halftime. Maria Henry wins this on his way up. Here's Michael Forbes. Might try his luck you know Michael Forbes and needed a lot of it to test Rashid Burrell from that distance.  That man not for the first time in his Champions Cup career is the difference. His goal as Clarence and College in front Michael Forbes had a pretty good first off but it wasn't enough. Heidel while disappointed that they are behind will still have belief that they can turn this around once it remains at just one. That man the teacher knows it's far from over. They too know they are still in a battle but at halftime they are in the ascendancy by a goal to nail. Jiro Polyg Action live on Sportsmax 2 this Thursday.

Back at the Anthony Sporting Sports Complex as we get ready for second half action in this is a Champions Cup semi-final the first semi-final on the day Kingston College and Glenmure to come in semi-final two current and college leading this one by a goal to nail. Highdale getting ready to make two changes at the start of the second half told you that they hadn't started the Sean Henry there leading goal scorer Keanu Jackson didn't start either and as they need to find a goal at least in this contest Smith just couldn't get the shot away Highdale C4 and 4 the captain Jackson lost out but Highdale looking for some impetus from their number 10 yet Keanu Jackson replacing Dante Stewart. Jackson getting a goal in that encounter. Claremont College maintaining pressure though that shot high over the top from Jamil Ashley here's Jackson again no nonsense challenge coming in from Bolt Barrett is this he's already making a difference for Claremont College yeah nothing we're not used to aggressive tackling from Bolt Barrett he is so decisive here is Jackson right for the effort is high and wide but you can already see that he'll be a danger man yeah had a goal in that Manning Cup semi-final the opening goal in that game that is eighth of the season Keanu Jackson his coach Devon Anderson often talks about he just needs him to set it down and play because if he is in full flight he's one of the best young players on the island and you can often see glimpses of that talent Hodges always looking for that long ball couldn't pick out Hall to Jean Relis all this man on the park 19 years old not counting the referee of course that's about to ask if he not counting himself but about coming over I'm not on the park am I good try though here is Smith shot blocked by his opposite number Malachi Douglas he is so efficient Malachi Douglas his quality can often go unnoticed the shot on Henry also coming on leading scorer for Heidel this season already you're seeing a slight difference to the quality going forward for this Heidel unit thoughts on Devon Anderson leaving out two of his leading men from the starting lineup well for in the case of Deshaun Henry had a bit of an injury problem in the Manning Cup semi-final in the case of Keanu Jackson he has been in and out of the starting lineup has been used as an impact player throughout the season and has had an impact whenever he's on the park scored a goal in their Champions Cup quarter-final win over Garvey Marcel as well Jackson that's a lovely ball from Douglas had to be read well how to fix up the slack Atitua Green Douglas for Green forces the save but Tajar released near post wasn't a lot of power behind it Deshaun Henry his cross is cut out by Barrett QP Hodges Diamond College easing into another attack here is the captain Malachi Douglas quickly releases it was looking for Christopher Hall Heidel who will win possession though here is Amaria Henry gets it inside for Smith Smith delivery is right at goalkeeper Rashay Burrell needed a better delivery than that Yeah I was wondering why I didn't play it along the ground anybody in the air from that angle I think he's going to give the goalkeeper an advantage especially when you're trying to whip it across the frame like that but more promising signs from this Heidel attack in the second half definitely but you don't suspect that they will get that much freedom in the Clarenin College penalty box going forward and you want to produce something even more than that Douglas steps another one forward Joma Gordon cleans up at the back for Heidel Seaborne trying to get it further clear Hodges in the mix showing off his ball handling skills Ashley was trying to venture further forward but Seaborne won that battle working over time the Heidel number 13 54th minute of this contest Clarenin College still leading by a goal to nil kahim Dixon's goal the difference first semifinal of the champions cup both teams in with a shot of winning the triple crown because they're already into their domestic finals the Manning and the Costa Cop competitions but they need this one if they are to remain in contention for the triple crown at the end of this contest Heidel behind trying to find a way to break through here is a Mario Henry delivers a really good ball inside hit it on for Jackson and Jackson's left footed shot is well blocked Devonte Hodges has possession now for Clarenin College was looking for Daniel Clark he probably asked a bit too much of him there not probably definitely did Dixon does well Dixon trying to slip this one through that's good defending still has possession kahim Dixon needs help gets it in the form of a team of green two inside the box waiting but patient cc will take over with Deon Coupi I can't swing it out wide for green green doesn't see the type of movement he wants up front and they restart the attack here's Malachi Douglas now dribbling forward gets inside the box can't shoot close to the cross and it's wide of the mark he almost looks stunned that that one did not cannon into the back of the net yeah that cross was fired across at him he tried to steer it into that far corner Tajari Lee was wrong footed had that been on target it definitely would have been a goal but thankfully for Lee and thankfully for Hydel the scoreline still remains one nil to Clarenin College is that all the chances today kahim Dixon he's taken just one but with his quality you keep giving him the opportunities and surely he will take another Clarenin College field that they should be tore three up by now 56th minute free kick coming for Hydel doesn't get by the one man wall if you may now clarenin college looking to escape Daniel Clark was dispossessed throw coming up for Hydel with Gabrielle Seaborn fall against Hydel caused by called by Turrell Clarenin College back in position Tajari Lee needing some assistance and by assistance I mean he's giving some assistance to his coaching staff so they can get some tactical instructions across this Hydel unit left hamstring being worked on for Tajari Lee in his second season of playing at this level of schoolboy football the 19-year-old his final season as well has done well for his new school Hydel but there is nothing he could have done about the goal that is making the difference Atiba Green with the cross Gallimore failing to convert coming off the crossbar the attempted clearance coming back out to Christopher Hall laying it off to Dixon and Dixon finishing beautifully for one nail yeah it was a really good finish putting it back where it came from finishing 101 wrong foot in the goalkeeper and I think Shamai Nicholson has the pattern that celebration how much it's being used since his exploits in the nation's league came Dixon the latest user and here comes Christopher Hall swings that one forward with the left foot here is Gallimore putting into Michael Forbes it goes long looking for Henry guess who was at the top of the area Borel and I think maybe even Bolbert had that one covered also his speed across the ground is quite remarkable I know that he has played fullback a lot in his younger years it is so quick well Borel giving away to Jackson Jackson for Henry Henry is right for the shot blocked by that man again Borel Barrett and he was from a similar angle where Henry scored that goal in the Manning Cup semifinal one of our goals of the week excellent block by Borel Barrett he has been supreme so far in this encounter an encounter which has two really good center backs I think and either side and he has stood out a cut above the rest yeah Nashorn Bolbert having another stellar game for Clarendon College here is Dixon Heidel winning position another loved ball out wide for Kylan Smith high cross inside the box the shot is blocked is another one coming in and that wasn't far over the top Heidel really forcing the issue in this second half Amaria Henry looking for the equalizer yeah we know that he has those capabilities and that one I think is about as close as he has come in this encounter so far just an inch or so over the crossbar he's coming closer and closer to getting his ninth of the season don't take it towards still with the best opportunity of the contest so far for Heidel forcing a left hand save from Bruce Borel from pretty much point blank range that was even before Clarendon College had found the opening goal the uncupy and that's an example of why I call him the best tempo setter in schoolboy football knows when to speed it up knows when to slow it down as well always available for a pass another exceptional player on this Clarendon College team Christopher Hall for Malachi Douglas your thoughts on Christopher Hall final stages of the various competitions yeah I think Christopher Hall has had a good season his most productive goals and assists wise of his schoolboy football career you know a lot of people had him as the star of this team especially seeing the exit of Reid from last season I'm not quite sure he's taken up that mantle but he's been yet another cog an effective cog in this well-oiled Clarendon machine and so far his contribution that assisted Cahim Dixon his 13th of the season 25th goal contribution of the season has Clarendon College in front with one foot into the Champions Cup final but the only one they still have a lot of work to do was very much in that player of the season conversation last year for the Dacosta Cup Christopher Hall here he is venturing forward once more as a number of players around him still manages to pick out Dixon Dixon skips over a challenge and finds Ashley out wide Clarendon College still attacking Jackman Ashley inside the box that's a real letdown because he had done brilliantly up to the point of delivering the cross yeah and that's the frustration with Ashley this season obviously a very skillful player I think when it comes on to his final action his final pass or shot can be disappointing at times. Abaria Henry showing real speed to get around Hodges goes down and Hodges wins the battle for Clarendon College and Abaria Henry stays on the floor which is not a good look for Heidel. When he sprinted just now to Jay Williams he looked like a man who attended Cannabar. I saw him last season in the Jamaica Premier League and in the link cup as well and when I saw him sprinting away from these grown men I knew that his pace was very serious so I get to point Ricardo good work by Joe McGoran there but has given it away Abaria Henry back up on his feet now. Cupid goes left side Clarendon College on the front foot once again here is Daniel Clark for Cupid to Dixon Dixon will get it back that shot peeling away miles wide of the target 64th minute of the encounter Clarendon College still leading by a goal to nail that the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex and it's clear that they want to increase that lead so is the Clarendon way never going to settle with one goal. Don't know the Sportsmax app from the Google Play or the App Store and witness the closing stages of the schoolboy football season in Jamaica. Champions semi-finals on today Kingston College and Glenmure to come in the second semi-final the Walker Cup and Ben Francis Cup knockout semi-finals to come this week as well with the Champions Cup final to close the show on Saturday and then the Manning and the Costa Cup finals and the Olivier Shield all in December can go over to January if you want to think about the old Manning and all the cost of a fear. Lenworth Hyde knows he's in charge but knows it's far from over as well here is Heidel with Henry this should be one one Henry gets around the goalkeeper gets to an acute angle is wondering how he did not confer. He did excellently I think for the first time we've seen him outpacing a Sean Barrett did it really well to get around the goalkeeper as well Borrell but just overrun it a bit and I think he needed a bit more composure here look for a teammate the angle so acute on his weaker foot he tried to get that ball into the upper 90 on the other side and oh my he should have done better there that's a golden opportunity for Hyde to level this one that is the type of opportunity you want to take in a massive encounter like this he'll be back for sure though Hydele that's a quick ball whipped in Forbes can't get the shot away in any case whistle against Hydele current in college still with a 1-0 advantage I still believe the best of this match is yet to come the crowd support has built significantly since the start of this encounter as Smith picks it up for Hydele and both Barrett is in the way again for Clarendon College he's just having another stellar game here is the cross which turned out to be a shot from Darren Campbell and it's pushed over by Borrell and the corner kick coming up for Hydele what seemed like an innocuous shot initially turned out to be quite a challenge for the Clarendon College custodian yeah he was watching the flight Hydele have taken the corner short Forbes hits it on and it's comfortable for Borrell this time Clarendon College have to be careful Lejay they have the lead but it's a fickle one it's just 1-0 yeah and we saw this in the Dacosta Cup semifinal where they had the lead for such a long period of time taking the lead towards the end of the first half then conceded that goal late on and then started conceding more chances 1-0 is never a safe lead and I'm sure they know that as season campaigners hence why they're on the attack for more Hydele very much still in the game here's the on Cupid back to Hodges Daniel Clare lays it forward for Ashley this one falls for Hall on his favorite left foot couldn't keep it down yeah leaning back a bit as he was striking the ball Christopher Hall always going to go over another half chance burned by Clarendon here is a Mario Henry with his sprinting boots on again Devonte Hodges has him covered Henry did well enough to win the corner kick though and another opportunity for Hydele to stay aggressive four corner kicks now for Hydele three for Clarendon College Hydele pressing for the equalizer won't get it there Hall for Gallimore for Clark Cupid Clarendon College in possession switches over onto the right for Attibo Green here is Cahim Dixon settling into their favored rhythm now Clarendon College using the full width of this Anthony Spaulding sports complex field this one slipped inside looking for the captain Malachi Douglas Douglas does well to win it Hall trying to escape one but couldn't get away from Seaborn who has been pretty solid today for this Hydele team and in the 70th minute Clarendon College still with a one little advantage yeah and he's had to be he has had some of the biggest defensive troubles so far in this game for Hydele and he stood up firm to a lot of them Ashley caught away from Jackson but couldn't get away from Brightley here is Jackson now or his pass picks out Dixon and Dixon felt ambitious to go for the right footed effort from distance won't add to his five champions got goals I'm not quite sure the exact statistics on it but I'm sure those five goals isn't far from being the all-time champions cup leading goalscorer I think Dujan Richards got six in his sole season so there's there's that to get over but apart from that I can't think of anyone else who would have scored that many yeah the thing about Cahim Dixon is that his goals have come at really impactful moments in big games oh that's a curve pop Cahim Dixon gets the cross inside took let's couldn't get it on the control to fire a shot fall back inside and cleared away again in the title winning season legit the first game against John Smith which was a quarterfinal round game Cahim Dixon won the penalty that resulted in the winner a 2-1 victory for them in a tightly contested match then he scored and assisted in the semifinal as Heidel come forward again the left footed shot is over the top the captain run on the barrette that's a big chance you know he was faced with a decision to make in that instance he was either going to slip in a Mario Henry or take the shot on himself it opened up for him to take the shot and on his favorite left foot I think he should do a little bit better there at the very least Tess Borel in that goal yeah very much the case and Chairman Ashley John holding on to his left hamstring and college have options on the bench and just to complete the point legit in terms of his champion's cop career Cahim Dixon won the penalty that got them the quarterfinal victory against John Smith in the 2021 22 campaign then he scored and assisted in the semifinal then he scored the lone goal in the final that was against Dintel technical and then of course last season he had that wonderful goal in the semifinal against Kingston College and he has scored two goals this campaign so he's had a big impact in different matches as Ashley is substituted and today in Williams who scored CC's third goal in the 3-1 victory over St. George's College in the quarterfinal round of this season's competition makes his way onto the park a minute homecoming for today in Williams as well is from this area not far away trench down like Cahim Dixon so a few Clarendon College players from this part of town it's clear then why a few of them look so comfortable here at the Anthony Spaulding sports complex but then again Clarendon College look pretty comfortable in almost every stadium in Jamaica unless it's raining right you make a fair point Campbell coming on the pressure from QP fall called against QP 76th minute of this semifinal still just one goal in it high Dill have had enough opportunities for you to think that this game is far from over here they come again Henry trying to create room to shoot and eventually run himself out of options or quality options and then give the ball away hall for Dixon Douglas has possession Dixon caught it inside back to Douglas high Dill back in numbers but Dixon has possession and the chance to cross it's across the face of goal and today in Williams picks it up at the other end chips one inside well read by Douglas oh that's not a bad left-footed shot that goes just wide off the left upright for a second when it left the boot you had the sense of something special but it wasn't special enough yeah good technique actually intentionally was interested well yeah just wasn't close enough to really trouble him they'll desperately want that insurance goal Karen in college they will not want to repeat of the Dacosta Cup semifinal on Saturday against Garvin Macio where as the J pointed out they led for a long time before having to go to penalties following a one-all draw here is Daniel Clark for QP Hodges was begging for it but it's a team of green who is in space on the right slips one forward to hollow his under pressure and loses possession high del on their way here is Henry of the Amaria variety Nashor and both Barrett wins another battle and Jackson and Jackson takes him down and he wins a free kick I'm not going to lie I'm appreciating this performance as the minutes goes on not only for the quality that we're seeing but also for the fact that he's making our man of the match decision extremely easy Ricardo yeah in my opinion he should have gotten it in the quarterfinals that game against St. George's College was given to Cahim Dixon who mind you had a very good game as well so but today I don't think there can be any doubt unless there's a dramatic shift and what is happening so far in this encounter here is Smith for high del Jackson won it picks up Kynan Smith again here is Kiana Jackson wherever half an opportunity presents itself he wants to go for a shot Daniel Clark allows that one to run behind for a Clarenin College goal kick he was trying to find the Sean Henry there who I don't think has had too big an impact since coming on for high del they're leading goal scorer DJ Williams has confidently predicted that Clarenin College will win the triple crown they are on course till Forbes picks up Dixon left it for Hall Hall was trying to curl it into the far post I did have some curl on it though he looks a frustrated figure yeah because he knows he can do better with that left foot of his he knows this is his brother bread and butter right technique execution just failing him a bit he stole them to enjoy the game I think they've enjoyed it today what the job is far from done at points it seemed as if they're putting on an exhibition what they need the insurance goal Dixon lifts it inside for Williams get some very good save out of Tajah Ali once again Douglas with a shot Tajah Ali equal to the task Forbes Jackson the attack breaks down for high del they'll get another chance to rebuild though the diagonal looking for Smith didn't get to him gets another opportunity here lifts it on for Darren Campbell ball part again I know the thing is at this point I think once the high del players see him coming a little bit of fear sets in similar to what we see with certain defenders in the European game when you when certain attackers see van dyke approaching or see William Saliba approaching it's a certain fear that they have us about by steaming in there and immediately I saw Darren Campbell think twice about getting that cross in good time to tell you to download the sportsmax app from the google play or the app store you can watch european football in your home of champions can also watch cowboy football high del looking for the equalizer still still high del with Henry was a screamer but it was a high one yeah he got his space he got his time to let fly we know he can let fly he certainly caught it well Roche Barell was scrambling and get another one for Mario Henry just a little bit over one of those afternoons where it just hasn't fallen for high del hasn't fallen for tarnan college in the way they would have wanted either flag is up a yellow card comes out it's all happening in the closing stages of this semi-final yeah but they're steaming in and for the first time I think in this game he's missed timed one and yeah I deserve a yellow card on that occasion or high del have a couple of players who I think would be interested in this one I immediately saw Keanu Jackson go over his left foot seems as if he's favorite Duran Campbell there as well Keanu Jackson seems most interested three man wall in place for clarenin college Jackson steps up Jackson fires high yeah it was always going to be an ambitious effort and it was but not the execution needed from Jackson and high del five minutes plus top each time now to equal and equalizer eight or six the minute of this semi-final clarenin college still with the advantage kahim Dixon 16th minute goal still the difference here is smith for Dishon Henry here's Henry again again the attack breaks down and the clarenin college can come away with it with christopher hall hall has some space in front of him decides to cut inside and then pick out kahim Dixon they should change his nickname to club into the champions cup final yet again in this competition into the caster cup and for clarenin college he has been their superman he has been inevitable and clarenin college have surely won this one I've said it before I'll say it again he is the most underrated player in all of schoolboy football his 27th goal of the season his third in the champions cup looks like a man who has resigned himself to the fact that they've they lose out on the triple crown it's clarenin college who are maintaining hopes of winning the coveted three the champions cup the caster cup in their situation and ultimately the olivia shield Dixon now sourced the six goals in his champions cup career andrew allen comes on for high del last throw of the dice by divan anderson and high del they need a big six clarenin college heading forward there will be a penalty appeal it's going to be a free kick and when you consider the jay williams that in truth and in fact kahim Dixon has scored 34 goals this season seven of those were wiped away because kellis were suspended well banned from the competition justin hails who scored the opener in the quarterfinal against st george's college is on the park as well the number 22 and when you consider the exploits of one dujean whisper richards last season if you were to include those goals against kellis he would have matched the goal under six output of richards last season so this season from kain dixon has been extraordinary and it isn't finished yet free kick coming up for clarenin college we are in the 90th minute of this semifinal three around the six yard box waiting for this delivery tixson and topless at the edge of the 18 took all oh that was a pretty good save devonte hodges with the final shot we've hit 90 minutes we are into time aledon corner kick for heidel five minutes minimum to play shavanna daily has also come on for heidel replacing darren cambell hitting towards a rare clean sheet in the latter stages of the various competitions the jay here's ativa green yeah you say a rare clean sheet as of late but in this they're 19th game of schoolboy football this season they have only conceded six goals to go along with 79 scored they really have been brilliant and i think that they are deserving deserving qualifier into the champions cup final they will play their fourth dakosta cup final in the last five seasons they are hitting for their second champions cup final in the last three michael forbes bounces doggles over and doggles things that he should have gotten something more for that hops away does malachi doggles was holding on to that right knee earlier in the contest was a moment of concern for clarenin college and that is something they will have to monitor even at the end of this contest here is smith for heidel for javanna bailey could heidel have been better today definitely yeah but i think a lot of what they have tried to do has just been nullified by this clarenin team yeah sports maxap moment brought to you by the sports maxap christopher hall to green the first goal of the contest the first of two for kaheem dixon checking his all-time champions cup tally to six fifth season stally now up to 27 sports maxap moment brought to you by the sports maxap 94th minute of this encounter free kit coming up for heidel clarenin college tune it up the delivery is not a bad one and it's paul baratou gets the header away icicle back in by the substitute andrew alley but it's right at brawrell clarenin's football is opposed again at the high school level 21 shots for clarenin college in this encounter nine of them on target 10 shots for heidel four of them on target now they'll look to see this one out mere seconds away from the final whistle barret showing good ball handling skills has to be careful though here is andrew alley 88th minute substitute with the 95th minute free kick even the cc fans are enjoying it diminutive but i'm sure he has a big heart well needed if he gets a chance in the manning cup final because there doesn't seem a way back in this champions cup semifinal ball inside and demoria henry didn't get enough of a top tournament if any at all and that will be that clarenin college back in the champions cup final beaten by deshaun richards and kinkston college a year ago this time around there is no denying that man kahim tixon with a double heidel and clarenin college remain on course for the triple crown tajara lead the transfer from kinkston college still with a shot at manning cup glory extension olivia shield success but the triple crown can only be achieved by two schools clarenin college one of them and they are further than the other with this two nil victory over heidel in semifinal one of the champions cups let's have a look at the match highlights clarenin college with german ashley's beautiful pass kahim tixon with a lovely run but unable to get on the end of it as the genre lee deandre gallimore with a free kick right at goal came off the crossbar after a slight touch from lee who was good in goal very good in goal for heidel today best chance of the first stop what a delightful ball inside from rinalda bryant the heidel captain but don't a steward could not beat broshey borrell a strong left arm denying him then in the 19th minute karenin college would get the opening goal at tivo green inside for gallimore his shot of the crossbar back out to christopher hall holt the kahim tixon tixon with a love to finish enjoy this one at their beautiful best was an opportunity to clear for heidel clearance wasn't decisive enough and they paid the price tixon at that point with his fifth goal in his champions cup career that was another opportunity with a lovely delivery coming from daniel clark jamil ashley turned that one to goal it was blocked clark tried his luck from distance but once again tajara lee was equal to the task the 19 year old for atiba green green inside to malachi douglas but atiba green couldn't beat lee at his near post wasn't enough power in the shot really douglas inside the box picking out kahim tixon his header wild of the mark he had wrong footed lee but couldn't hit the target heidel there are opportunities in the second half amaria henry with a shot from outside the 18 that went over the top henry showing speed here getting around barrett getting around then from an acute angle spanked it over the top yes he would have been disappointed with the final effort had options to cross as well that looked like an innocuous pass initially from darren cambell turned out to be some trouble for berelu handed it in goal and then here is hall cutting inside making the pass to kahim tixon and tixon firing home with the right foot 87th minute closer for the clarenin college number 13 a double for him his third goal in the champions cup this season his 27th goal in all of schoolboy football and clarenin college into the champions cup final with a 2-0 victory over heidel at the anthony sporting sports complex let's have a look at the match statistics then 21 shots of clarenin college 9 on target 10 for heidel 4 on target 13 falls in the encounter seven of them called against clarenin college one yellow card that was given to heidel's darren cambell four corner kicks of heidel three four clarenin college seven saves made by tasha relene the heidel goal four by broshey borrell the clarenin college custodian heidel had a much better second half in terms of possession but ultimately clarenin college posted overall 60 to 40 the stat that matters most though clarenin college winning this encounter by two calls to nil yeah kimania solivan is with the player of the match this week no doubt about it all right thank you rickardo i'm joined by man of the match for

The paper that I presented today is about the increase in concentration in industry concentration that we are seeing both in the US and in Europe, but also in Japan, and in the paper we try to look at the determinants or the correlates of this increase in concentration and we find that the biggest explanation for this increase in concentration is the increasing role of the investment in intangible assets, and we find that the relationship between intangible assets and increase in industry concentration is much stronger in sectors that are more open, suggesting that the scale of the market is particularly important in digital intensive sectors, suggesting that there is a complementarity between intangible assets and digital technology, and in sectors that were initially already large, and we also find that there is an important role of innovative property and in particular patents in explaining the increase in the market share of the largest companies.


not paranoid paranoid paranoid my throat is a little scratchy look I just had we just had COVID in July but I really do think it's my allergies how are y'all allergies doing like I have been my

like a lot but really it isn't we're able to get through all of this stuff in two hours tomorrow he won't do homeschooling and then Friday we'll hit it hard again and then possibly a little bit on Saturday all right y'all look and it's been a long week but it's finally Friday it's Friday and I'm ready to swing a little bit tipsy on this thing girl fix me a little a little thing of whatever so y'all it's Friday and it was really busy at work this week but it was productive and I do not mind look I do not mind having a productive busy week what I don't like is when I'm busy ain't shit getting done because I'm busy trying to put out fires that I don't like but they was it was a predict a productive week so we're good we're good so yes it's Friday my husband's off cooking I'll show y'all what I'm cooking here in a minute but I'm gonna share something with y'all because and I need to be careful of how I worth this I it's not that I think I'm gonna offend someone I just want to make sure that whatever I say that it comes across genuine which I do think it will so y'all I got a harsh reminder that when we live that when we leave this earth that we cannot take nothing with us and so you have to think about what do you want people to remember you by because it's not like people are not going to put it like this so case to what I don't want people yes I think I have good hair but I don't want people to remember me remember me by my great hair meaning physical you know materialistic things you know what I mean physical quality is materialistic things characteristics that's what I want people to remember remember me by she was a kind person she was funny she was witty she was smart I'll hill I'll even go where she was a great cook you know what I mean hell that's a skill set right the reason why I'm bringing this up is that about two weeks ago one of the moms in the neighborhood she sent me a text message and she's like she's like hey Vivian they're already putting up soaring souls house for sale this is the family where the father killed the family there was a survivor the little girl survived but everyone else is passed on it was horrible so I was like are you serious y'all within two weeks the family I don't know if it was her mother had put the house meaning that the wife's mother the grandmother had put the house up for sale and we don't know people situation so great but I know for me I don't think I could do that that fast but hey this is the market right now to sell to ironically so um what's my point so anyway she was like the mom in the neighborhood was like she's like yeah and there's a bunch of stuff outside I so what do you mean she's like well they put a bunch of stuff out for bulk pickup I was like oh my god so yeah I don't know why I did this I don't know why I did this but I went by there I walked by cuz I was curious to see what do they have of these people that are out there it was a little bit of furniture and stuff and you know knickknacks and then I saw a box of trophies and they were the boys trophy he was 13 years old he he he ended up dying too and then he played baseball he was very athletic built too I could tell that he would have you know was possibly a good athlete and so there was like I always say about 20 15 to 20 trophies in this box on his side of the road for trash and you could tell these were this child's prized possessions but then they got me thinking you and just a reminder that you can't take none of this stuff with you when you're gone you can't take none of this with you so what will people remember you by like seriously what and thankfully I have great I mean I wasn't close with the family but I have good memories of the children and the little boy was always a sweetheart and that's what I remember him by it wasn't that he was a great athlete you know what I mean so I just got like one day you know once we are gone our our whoever is our loved ones are gonna have to trash our stuff that we value but really that's not really a value you know what I mean and so that was a harsh reality for me is that you know what do I want people to remember me by remember me by it's not gonna be stuff I can't take this with me hey y'all so we are in girl we're leading into the second week of December y'all it's just steadily going on now I woke up I've been sleeping crazy so I've been sleeping in a guest bedroom plus my husband has a cold he claims that we gave him a cold but no he's literally sneezing and coughing and I'm like you you can't be sneezing on my bunnet in the middle of the night so I've been sleeping in the back room for the last two nights just because we both have not been sleeping well it's a we sleep when we're like this we sleep better separate at

insomniac I guess you call it to where I can get up in the middle of night 30 minutes wide awake and fall asleep again no problem no problems at all okay so it looks like they are switching to virtual learning for the school district here until the beginning of February when I tell you some folks or his some parents but this is the thing I really don't know what people thought with the numbers steadily going up what do you expect we knew this was gonna happen and we had a hunch that they were gonna shut down if you're not doing if you were in person yeah you go on a virtual and this is something that's going to be happening y'all for a while I hate to say it but it is it's just um my neighbor told me her grandbaby has had four teachers already now he now she has a fifth teacher

Hi there, are you a facilitator struggling to maintain your participant's energy in your online workshop? In this case, this video is for you. In this video, our colleague Amer shares his effective and easy tips on how to manage energy in your remote workshop. I promise you, if you follow those tips, your participants won't be falling asleep in that remote workshop. And if you want to learn more about workshopping and facilitation, join our free facilitation community called Facilitator Club, where hundreds of facilitators share their tips, insights and experiences. Link is in the description below. Now over to you Amer. So energy is a really key component of remote facilitation. Now of course, it also holds true for in-person facilitation, but the difference is that your energy does not carry over exactly on a Zoom call or remote call in general. And the other thing that you need to be aware of is that it might be natural for you to just slip into the mode of having a remote conference call, which is very, very boring and will disengage people very quickly. And so the first point is that a workshop is not a meeting. Now, this is not something that you necessarily think about in an in-person workshop, just because everyone knows that, you know, we're in a workshop room, we have all these post-its and whiteboards and all that, but it's very easy to slip into a regular meeting kind of pace and tone when you're running remote workshops. And so a workshop needs to feel different than a remote call. You should expect your clients to be in calls all day long and you don't want your workshop to feel just like another very long call. Instead it should feel energetic, it should feel exciting. It should feel like they're making progress and doing important work. And so what you need to do in this case is bring more energy than you would in an in-person workshops because, like we said, some of that energy will get lost over the call, it will not carry over exactly. And so you need to exaggerate it a little bit and this will feel strange at first, but you will get used to it and it feels especially strange when other people are muted or if they have their cameras turned off, which we do not recommend. It'll be hard for you to see a feedback from other people and it'll feel like you're the only excited person in the room and you might think that you'll need to match the tone and the energy of the room to be a good facilitator, but that's not true in remote facilitation. You really need to bring the energy and while it might feel strange on your side, on the participant's side, it'll feel very energizing and it'll come off naturally. And the trick with this that will help you bring more energy is to actually genuinely excite yourself about the workshop before it starts. And so instead of bringing over like fake enthusiasm or fake energy in order to achieve this principle, what you can do is actually look at the challenge, think about how you're going to be helping your clients do a lot of work in a short amount of time and genuinely get excited about the workshop and that will feel a lot more natural and it won't feel like you're putting on this fake persona and you can do this even if you're an introvert. I'm an introvert myself, but when I'm facilitating workshops, I bring a lot more energy than I normally would in my normal conversations, in my in-person facilitation, just because that's what I need to do in order to deliver a great workshop. And yes, it means that I might be tired after the workshop, but that's okay as long as the workshop itself goes great. So there's really no excuse to not bring more energy. Again, it will feel weird in the beginning. You just need to get used to it, but this is definitely an important part of facilitating remote workshops. And a couple of important tips when it comes to the energy in the room is one to start off the workshop with a warm-up exercise, an ice breaker. Instead of just plunging everyone straight into the workshop, like people come into the call and you're like, all right, let's get started right away. That might be a little too much for people to handle, because they're changing context from whatever they were doing first. Remember, when this is not an in-person workshop, they don't have the time of like going from a place to another place to do the workshop where they get to like disconnect and put themselves into the mindset of the workshop. They're probably jumping in from another meeting or another task. And so it's useful just to give everyone some time to warm up, some time to get comfortable with the tool, and that will help keep the energy up and like slowly ramp it up in the participants instead of stressing them out by immediately starting with an exercise. And so we like to use an ice breaker that's essentially asking people what their first job was and talking about one thing that they learned from it. There are tons of ice breakers you can google them, choose which everyone feels, you know, most fun and natural to you. Something that you yourself are interested in or you feel like your participants might like. You can change these up between workshops, but it's just a good idea to have one instead of immediately going into the workshop and that will help you manage the energy in the room better. And a warm-up exercise is actually a really good way to start to instill the principles before you actually start. And so we do the warm-up exercise in a together alone fashion. And so we actually make people experience what together alone feels like and then later on we say like, all right in this sprint in this workshop we're going to be working together alone. And then we refer back to the warm-up exercise to say like, remember how we all took some time to ourselves and we thought about what we wanted to write and then we presented to the group that's how we're going to be working. And so a warm-up exercise is a great way of introducing the principles in a tangible way before you actually call them out. And then when you call them out people already know what that means. And the last thing related to managing energy is having some workshop music. This is one thing that's easy to forget when you're on a remote call but it actually really, really helps. And in our experience clients really love having music because that's not something that they're used to in their regular meetings. And when you don't have music the silence can get very heavy and the workshop can get very serious. Especially when it's all about you know making important decisions and having discussions and people disagreeing. The music when people are working in a together alone fashion really helps everyone just like relax, have a little bit more fun, get the creative juices flowing. And we often have people just complimenting you know the music that we play for them and they feel like it's a much nicer way to work. And so if you're using Zoom you can actually share the audio of something like Spotify or another music app so that you can play workshop music to the workshop or you can buy some dedicated software that will route the audio of your computer into the workshop call itself. And there you have it. Now you have some new tricks to manage energy in your remote workshops.
