Abstract

The article deals with the actual issues of talent development in high performance sport. Talent development is a complex process that involves a combination of genetics and environment. Long-Term Athlete Development Models have contributed to talent development research and generalizations, while Bloom et al.’s study of advanced talent development has laid the foundation for talent development philosophy. Ericsson’s Notion of Deliberate Practice emphasizes the importance of the amount of deliberate practice as a significant determinant of expertise attained. Experts invest more hours of practice per week compared to novices and start engaging in deliberate practice at younger ages.However, it is impossible for individuals with less accumulated practice at a given age to catch up with those who started deliberate practice earlier and maintained optimal levels of practice. Overall, talent development remains a topic of discussion for centuries and requires a combination of genetic predisposition and environmental factors to attain excellence. Implementing Pre-Detection and Post-Detection procedures in talent development can lead to critical outcomes. Providing quality physical education and regular practice opportunities in schools can increase the number of physically advanced children, leading to more potential talent to be identified and developed by coaches
