Abstract
In this short commentary, I provide considerations for whether genetic testing is a worthwhile investment within sporting talent identification and development systems based upon the recent paper by McAuley and colleagues. In summary, these reflections suggest that genetic testing may not be a good use of resource within talent identification and development. This is because of the cost of genetic testing, the limited evidence for it’s use but more importantly the complexities of talent identification and development in sport that in reality cannot be solved by genetic testing.
