OSM Training Guide: How to Develop Players

Manager Guide · 2026-02-07 · 4 min

Training is crucial for long-term success in OSM. Here's how to optimize it based on player age.

Young Players (17-21)

• Camp: Long (Development focused)
• Training: Intensive individual
• Hidden Training: ON (fast development)
• These players grow fastest. Invest heavily.

Mid-Age Players (22-27)

• Camp: Medium (Balance)
• Training: Position-based
• Hidden Training: ON (balanced)
• Peak performance period. Best value-to-performance ratio.

Experienced Players (28-31)

• Camp: Short (Form maintenance)
• Training: Light
• Hidden Training: OFF (risky)
• Development slows down. Focus on maintaining form and fitness.

Veterans (32+)

• Camp: Very short
• Training: Fitness only
• Hidden Training: OFF
• Prepare the next generation. Don't overwork veterans.

Key Insight

The biggest mistake managers make is training veterans too hard. Focus your resources on young players — they give you the best return on investment.
