The Rise Of Esports
Feb 19 2023
The Rise Of Esports
As the world of digital entertainment continues to grow, one area that is rapidly rising to prominence is esports. Competitive gaming has become a global phenomenon with millions of fans, and its impact on the sports and entertainment industries cannot be denied.  At In the Game Sports Podcast, we recently had the pleasure of speaking with Syed Hamad Abbas from Qatar University eSports Club about the rise of esports and its potential positive impact on children.  One of the most interesting points we discussed is how esports can help teach important life skills like teamwork, communication, and problem-solving. Competitive gaming requires players to work together and communicate effectively, which can help them develop these skills both on and off the gaming field.  Esports can also provide a sense of community and belong for young people. Many gamers find like-minded peers and friends through gaming, and this sense of connection can help combat feelings of isolation or loneliness.  Additionally, esports can provide a pathway to scholarships and other educational opportunities. Many colleges and universities now offer esports programs, and some even offer scholarships to talented players.  At In the Game Sports Podcast, we're excited to be part of the conversation about the rise of esports and its potential impact on our children and young people. So if you're interested in the world of gaming and esports, be sure to check out our latest episode featuring Syed Abbas. It's a fascinating conversation that's sure to leave you feeling optimistic about the future of gaming and its potential to make a positive impact on our children.

England Band Leader
Now listen to this story about why we always believe!! "It's coming home!" John Hemmingham please take a bow.   The World Cup is not just the biggest #football show on earth; it is also the biggest and largest entertainment event both on and off the field (stadium). With the 32 teams competing in #Qatar, there will be at least 32 different bands providing music and dance to support their favorite teams.   For #England, the England Band, who have been one of the mainstays of the team since 1996, following the Three-Lions everywhere and anywhere since then, will be live and direct in Qatar.  The Sheffield-based band is led by John Hemmingham, our next guest on In The Game.  John, who is also the band's lead trumpet player, first started playing music football in 1993 with Sheffield Wednesday fans.  He has been playing and supporting the Three Lions at tournaments around the world for over 25 years now, besides playing at other sporting events including the Olympics and boxing matches.  With special thanks to our team Zein and Elizabeth at the Soutien Group, your continued support is just amazing.
