I go with 3 trainees and play:
Game 1: trainee 1 48mins
Game 2: trainee 2 48mins
Game 3: trainee 3 48mins

This way your 3rd trainee gets 48mins each week too and they don't have to be a "lesser" trainee. Maybe once or twice a season you'll get a situation, but you can usually avoid it by training one on one that week and giving them all 48mins still.

Just remember to still get your trainees a secong game where they play backup only so they total around 65 mins each week. This will keep their game shape in strong or proficient.

yep this is the way to have 3 trainee's.

Mickyster aluded to maybe only having the 3rd trainee as a 'lesser' trainee, because what may happen in G1 or G2, is that your trainee does not get his allocated minutes,

So say Trainee 2 only gets 40 minutes (for whatever reason which i won't go into here. ) in G2, then you could set him as reserve and backup in G3 to get those extra 8 minutes.
However the impact is that then your trainee 3, only gets 40 mins.

Also the problem with having 3 trainee's, is that you end up with 1 position in every single game, which is, for a few seasons, having (possibly) a lesser player in that position, week in week out. - That is to say, you put a brand new trainee at PG, its going to be 1-2 seasons before he is servicable as a PG fo ryour team.

So be aware that training brand new trainee's can be determinantal to your team's success. So this is all part of a being a sucessful manager, and managing/balancing this.

Actually, if you re-read what Mickyster wrote, it's not what he said, which is why I added this way.

In the way he described, your 3 trainees will rarely all receive 48mins in a week, and therefore your third trainee is, infact, lesser.This way they almost always all get 48mins, and your third trainee is as well trained as your other 2.

IMO it is taking too much of a risk to try and force 3 guys to get 48 mins a week.
Most weeks I get 3 to get 48 mins but sometimes it just does nto work out. And you need to be prepared to just to 1 position training if need be or have a trainee who you are happy to miss some mins.

Generally my 3rd guys is a younger lower potenital guy or a older guy I am just giving some finishing touches to. Tryint to get 4 players 48mins a week will make it hard to win as often and also be difficult for a new person to training to manage.

So who is your 3rd trainee? How many times has he got 48mins this season?

Nolan is mine. He has had 48mins training every week this season, apart from his recent injury break.

I agree that you need a third trainee, who you are willing to give less minutes to if necessary. But you should try to give all 3 48 training minutes per week, because, why not?

Agreed, it's kind of like disadvantaging yourself to prevent a possible, yet unlikely, disadvantage. Your conceeding that you will just be disadvantaged

This is my position
Only been 2 times people did not get 48 mins all season. And it was 2 different guys. Imo by not naming 2 guys in the training position you can lose heaps of mins. Guy gets injured early. Most the time you get 48 for 3 guys but sometimes you don't.

Looking at your trainees mins I can't see one week where all 3 of your trainees got 48mins single position using this strategy? Can you explain how it's been working for your trainees?

To get 48mins for all 3 in single position, you'd have to fluke them getting the same mins in 2 consecutive games.
