Tennis as a career for 15 years old

[ashfaqad]

Hi folks
I am trying to learn if to choose tennis as a full time cares option for my son ( 15 years ) and daughter 12 ,
I prefer my kids homeschooling,
They like football but , I don’t know if football as a full time player feasible due to lack of facilities , or team or national support ,

Went to ITF in Islamabad,
Met a visiting a coach from Paso Texas , young men and women ,

Before I ask chatgpt and Grok , I thought I’ll ask this community ,

What are the do’s and Do nots ,
Your reply is always appreciated,
Regards

I'm not an expert or anything but it's my hunch that starting at 15 may be a bit too late in the day for a professional career

my opinion too, boxing, golf and tennis ,

when these three in one sentence , i lean towards tennis ,

tennis is good as sports hobby in Pakistan.
in our country every game / sports is bastardised and only well connected can make it to national level.
if you have choice to relocate, at present UAE is most liberal secular part in GCC to bring up groom & educate children to their apptitude.

look at wider national picture about athletes, there is no future or recognition at any level. Connections to some political or uniform institutes are only way to make space
