Yes, but my point was that 18 year olds aren't generated until the second day of the season in the version of the game I've been playing for 15 seasons.
Is there something I've been missing?
As far as Academy players are concerned that's true. I think they are generated before the day actually starts so perhaps they age almost immediately on Day 1 - mail came 1 min before the day started telling me I had 2 players.
