Paid Trainings:
So this is mostly what the points you've accumulated will be spent on, training your players a bit further than they already are. This is completely separate from the "Training Camp" that happens with your team right before the preseason starts. In the "Training Camp", once your player has hit his potential in a certain attribute he will not be trained any higher than that said potential. These "Paid Trainings" are a bit different. Now when you pay for a training using your points, whichever attribute you choose to train will be raised 5 numbers on current AND 5 numbers on potential. Meaning if a attribute's potential is maxed then you can still train that attribute. There are certain guidelines though.
You can only pay for trainings in the off-season(when the regular season starts you can no longer train) or during the All-Star Break.You cannot train rookies at all. Must wait until the player has played a full season.You cannot train a player more than once in a season.You cannot train a player more than three times in their career.You cannot train an attribute past the rating of "85"You cannot train a player with purple potential. Period. (New Rule, S11 onward - Quail)You cannot train a player who made All-League 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Team in the previous season. (I.e. Karl Malone makes All-League 2nd team for the 94-95 Season; he cannot be trained in the following offseason or during the 95-96 season. If he does not make the All-League Team for the 95-96 season, he is eligible to be trained again.)NEW Training System:
