A bit like most of my exams, the question isn’t the issue, it’s getting the right answer that is so difficult. Saying sign better youth is all well and good but is there any certain way of spotting who will develop into class adult players or is it all a bit hit and miss?My family have been involved in a (very) minority sport to a relatively high level. None of the competitors who were outstanding at youth level developed into successful adults (in the sport). Some had peaked early due to physical development, some had good skills early but didn’t develop. Some had had enough of the sport, others developed different interests and there are always those who have the full package but just can’t be ars*d.
