Forecast Defender ratings if they spend maximum time in academy
The average KABs have now been multiplied by the amount of weeks they will be trained based on this seasons coaches at clubs and for the amount of seasons they can at a maximum spend in their respective academies.

• Zero Coaches = 20 weeks training
• One Coach = 25 weeks training
• Two Coaches = 30 weeks training
• Currently 20 years of age = Maximum 2 seasons in academy
• Currently 19 years of age = Maximum 3 seasons in academy
• Currently 18 years of age = Maximum 4 seasons in academy
• Currently 17 years of age = Maximum 5 seasons in academy

Please note these are basic calculations off of 16 weeks training data, averages can go up and down over the time players spend in the academy and will not take into account mid-season events that can have either a positive or negative effect on players actions.

The averages do not include the mid-season event but the current ratings of each academy player at week 16 is the base point for which the averages are applied to get the forecast off week 16 averages.
