Kuala Lumpur: A comprehensive study needs to be carried out if there is a need to set an age limit for high-performance athletes, said National Sports Council (NSC) director-general Datuk Ahmad Shapawi Ismail

He said the age for high-performance athletes usually begins at 17, right after completing high school, and it would usually take three Olympic cycles or 12 years for them to reach peak performance.
“At below 17, they are still in the process of talent formation and development, we are still honing that talent. After that, (they are) just starting a competitive environment, competing with other athletes. This is when we see how far the athletes can go.
