Identification of sport talented individuals and their timely introduction into the training process of a sport that corresponds the most to their abilities is one of the most demanding procedures in the modern sport science. Wrong decisions are frequent and usually very painful. The problem of talented individuals is in the fact that they are not talented only in one area but they are, as a rule, successful in many areas. The basic dilemma is related to the decision about which sports to engage in and how much time to devote to a specialized sport. Is early engagement of children in sport useful or not? The answer is yes and no. However, early engagement in sport has become trendy in contemporary sport. Many young champions burn out too soon. Coaches and too ambitious parents often have completely unrealistic expectations about the sport results of their children. Due to oversized and extremely specialized training, on average young athletes sustain injuries relatively frequently and also lack internal motivation.
