Result

2–3 sport categories out of six for first trials

The model distributes the child's potential across six categories and highlights several directions worth trying first — with a word-based match level, not a "score out of 100."

CY

Cyclic

Running, swimming, cross-country skiing, cycling.

SS

Speed-strength

Sprinting, jumping, weightlifting.

CC

Complex-coordination

Gymnastics, acrobatics, figure skating, diving.

CS

Combat sports

Boxing, wrestling, martial arts.

TG

Team / game sports

Football, hockey, basketball, volleyball.

ME

Multi-event

Decathlon, pentathlon, triathlon.

This is a map of possibilities, not a verdict: the model does not choose one sport for the family or close off other categories — it shows which directions are most reasonable to try first.
