Are movement screenings as important as advertised?

In my experience no, outside of a few factors scenarios as return to sport or anatomical/physiological limitations an athlete may have been born with. Personally, I like to leave this to the ATC’s, PT’s, and Dr’s and I follow from there.

In normal situations you can gather more information from having live reps and mobility versus having to screen for all day 1. Which as you season as a coach, the movement patterns and organization tell more than the screening.

Does competition affect recruiting? Absolutely, especially if you may be missing some of the measurables.

Does this mean you cannot be recruited no. It does mean you have to play at the top of whoever is in front of you if the competition is low. There is little room for era versus better divisions.

Do you need constant sprint time on your legs in order to build speed?

Yes & no, it’s about context. How long have you been in the program, fatigue level, recovery time (when does training take place in relation to games/practice versus training), stress, and a multitude of other factors.

This 1 minute video does not give me the time to expound in depth. Feel free to comment.

“Whatever you don’t use you lose.”

This is the simplest way to think about speed training. What do you want to keep and prioritize?

If you are not hitting high intent max effort exposures at minimum 1 day weekly. You will lose those gains and adaptations you worked for in the offseason. Make those deposits to stay ahead.
