+1 for the risk of too high stamina and too much minutes. I experienced that with players at stamina 9, that's not a good idea to me.

Aah okay thank you!

Is this some random occurrence? To me it seems like training Stamina also affect other skills. I expected the cross training to happen when using primary skill training, not team training.

This is very interesting. Does this 10% of share goes fully to a particular skill (chosen on random) or it is distributed to multiple skills (equally or not). Say, with training GS 90% of the effect goes to the GS, and 10% goes to jump range (random), OR 10% is then shared among jump range, passing, stamina...

I think what you're referring to is that cross training benefits balanced players the most. A player that is not well balanced loses more than 10% of their primary training which goes to an unrelated secondary skill. However, a balanced player loses a much smaller percentage of their primary training but still receives the same 10% cross training benefits.

From the game manual about cross training:

For the average player in the game, this[cross training] will result in approximately 10% slower training in their primary skill than before, and additional training in other skills approximately corresponding to that 10% loss. A particularly well-rounded player will continue to receive cross-training but will see a much lower reduction in primary skill training, while a particularly one-dimensional player will see a larger loss.
