A major problem with the FFA's current system for developing players is that in order to be discovered you would have to be known at a very young age to have talent. What I mean is not that 'late-bloomers' are rare here but that players who only really start to develop in their mid to late teens are not being given a chance as opposed to players who have had these skills since they were barley walking. Studies have shown that potential athletes should only start to pay attention to their sport of choice when they turn 14 yet in the current system 14 is way too late. Who else believes this is a problem? If so how would you go about fixing it?
