A trial is only a short contact point. Registration decides whether the player can actually enter the system and stay in it. Families often confuse being seen with truly having a pathway, but those are very different things.
Without registration, it is difficult to build continuity. The player may train for a short period, but there is no stable structure for competition and no real long-term observation cycle.
That is why pathway judgment should treat registration as a core variable rather than an administrative detail.
Key takeaways
- Trials are short-term exposure.
- Registration creates a real pathway.
- Long-term competition depends on stable registration.
