[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Always try to play at the highest levels you can get to.  If you're playing at a low level at younger ages, it will be hard to match the speed of play at the higher levels because it is just something your not used to.  Can a player play high school football and still be a pro?  Maybe.  A broken clock is right twice a day.  But it is much less likely.  We are talking about the best chances of success. [/quote]
It’s tough to know how to attribute success. Are the successful ones successful because they followed this blueprint? Or were they likely to be successful no matter which path they took because they had what it takes. Hard to say.

It’s similar to how graduates from top colleges have higher paying jobs. Is it because they went to that college, or is it because that college filters for the types of kids who would perform well no matter where they went to college.

The kids that start with private training, play high level early, and follow the “blueprint” is a filtering system for the types of players who were already likely to succeed. I don’t think it makes them succeed. [/quote]

It's sports.
No one is likely to succeed to top levels without the required work and sacrifice [/quote]
Exactly. And identifying who has those attributes is very difficult to predict at young ages. Really until later teen years. [/quote]
