Thought I'd throw a little something out here I've been using since my players all just reached their birthdays or are about to. Several in-game years ago, I started 'benchmarking' my players; tracking their raw abilities by age so I could compare how well I was getting the next guy trained up comparatively. Here's how the list looks now with at least one player at most ages recorded:

42 -- Manohar 108/91/89 -- 4.47 trainer
40 -- Manohar 108/87/85
39 -- Manohar 108/84/82
38 -- Manohar 108/80/78
37 -- Manohar 108/77/73
29 -- Mehul 122/91/1
28 -- Mehul 119/89/1
27 -- Mehul 117/87/1
26 -- Mehul 114/84/1; Girsh 114/84/0
25 -- Girsh 111/82/0; Mehul 111/81/1
24 -- Girsh 108/79/0; Mehul 107/78/1
23 -- Girsh 104/75/0
22 -- Girsh 99/71/0
21 -- Mooljee 94/66/0; Girsh 94/65/0
20 -- Mooljee 87/60/1
19 -- Mooljee 80/53/1
18 -- Mooljee 72/46/1
17 -- Mooljee 62/37/1
15 -- Dudwadkar 20/19/0
14.29 -- Dudwadkar 7/4/0 -- 2.45 rating'

The three numbers are raw skill/service/doubles respectively. It's remarkable to me how similar they have been so far despite some variances in starting skills, periodic screw-ups now and then that I've mostly eliminated, etc. Having a trainer now will help with the younger two guys I have but probably only marginally. Every little bit helps though. Mehul and Girsh have both peaked at about 5.3/3.9, 5.3/4.0 for a while. I'd like to get to 5.4/4.0 which I haven't been able to sustain for more than a few weeks. Hopefully one of the youngsters can do it.
