Increasing senior age to 17 won't stop training methods

[exNyer]

All the talk about increasing senior age minimum won't change how and when these children are taught these jumps.
The injuries will still happen and weed out those who aren't still healthy by the age of 17
Same with limiting rotation in juniors or ladies shirt programs to "protect" the skater's health. These kids start to learn triples/quads h at younger ages and include them when rules allow

I think the benefit of increasing the minimum age to 16 or 17 would be to force the coaches to train the girls so they can actually be competitive at 17, 18, 19 etc rather than be finishing their careers at that age.
