Just wondering, was there ever a thing where Teitan High School captain begged Shinichi repeatedly to join the school's soccer team? i have a vague memory about it, but I can't remember if it's in the manga or is it just a fic that I read. (not talking about him being poached in middle school to joining the Tokyo Black Noir(?) soccer team)
If anyone know, thanks a bunch!

At this point, I may need confirmation on this as I haven't touched this bit since I wrote one of my older stories, but if one would recall the Koshien case, it was shown that Shinichi actually was part of the varsity team and had competed in some inter-school competitions, but in one such match, he couldn't make the penalty kick that could've kept their championship hopes alive which ultimately led to his retirement from competitive soccer, like he'd already reached the peak of his athletic ability or something . I also remember referring to an OVA which showed his active role in the team. Hope that sets you in the right direction.

At this point, I may need confirmation on this as I haven't touched this bit since I wrote one of my older stories, but if one would recall {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}the Koshien case, it was shown that Shinichi actually was part of the varsity team and had competed in some inter-school competitions, but in one such match, he couldn't make the penalty kick that could've kept their championship hopes alive which ultimately led to his retirement from competitive soccer, like he'd already reached the peak of his athletic ability or something . I also remember referring to an OVA which showed his active role in the team. Hope that sets you in the right direction. I think that's from the Bonus File/Magic File "Fantasista Flower", kind of like a companion piece to movie 16 "Eleventh Striker". I recently found out there was reference to it in Episode ONE (not the first episode, but the 1hr special). For fear of me not getting the spoiler tag right I'm not going to go into too much details on the how it happened. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}Shinichi and Ran were walking by the playground where Ayumi, Genta, Mitsuhiko were playing soccer. Genta, like always, put too much strength behind his kick. Shinichi caught the ball, showed off his skills before passing it back to Mitsuhiko. When asked whether Shinichi was a soccer player, Shinichi replied he "used to be" to which Ayumi later commented that "I wonder if we made friends with someone skilled in soccer, would we also be able to play as skillful". As they left the playground area, Ran commented that "If Shinichi hadn't retired from the soccer club, you'd most likely be a member of the Samurai Blues". Shinichi stated several reason (and managed to launch it into the realms of Holmes).

Was this in highschool? I had the impressions this was in middle school. *goes check mountain load of scanlations*

Only thing I can remember is them begging Shinichi to not stop playing football from the first episode or so. But I think you'd be fine if you choose to have it like that in your story: there is not evidence against it ever happened. Leeway in interpretations is allowed!
