 Does the progression stay the same all through the playing career or does it varies? Someone needs to clarify this as we have given mixed answers in the past . Say I have a player who is 15 and has 60 progression. Will it stay beyond the age of 23? 16/05/2011 12:34

 The progression will stay the same throughout their career except for (1) if a junior player is promoted too early, or (2) they reach an age where they start to decline, or (3) they reach their maximum potential average. That age and max average varies from player to player. 16/05/2011 22:38

 Thanks for your reply. Is it after 25, players start to decline? 16/05/2011 23:15

 I think there is confusion when it comes to forecast and progression.

Progression is just a % growth rate, ie the rate at which a player will train from the time he leaves school till the time he reaches his peak number( for example 75)

It is a fixed value - this is important to understand (If it changed all the time, it would be difficult to calculate)

Now, the trick is to fully understand the forecast because this DOES change. If a player is 14 or 15 and just out of school his forecast will show the maximum he can achieve. With good training (especially as a junior) he can attain this number (I dont want to call it a value because that pertains to a monetary amount). With little training or promotion too early or leaving a player unpromoted at 19 etc (low morale) or playing a player out of position - these impact on the players forecast but not his progression. If you buy a player with low morale and maybe a medium forecast (say 55), boost his morale and train him at least once a week, you will see his maximum number on his forecast actually go back UP (but not to the same amount as he was at 14)

So, saying all that you can see that age does not matter when checking forecast, and age is not in the equation for calculating progression either.
Now, forecast reaches a peak and starts to tail off. If a young player has been vigorously trained and reaches his forecast peak at 19 he will plateau for a long time (stay at that number) but then start dropping.
