Meh, there wasn't always sport. As long as you have a good mentor and patience to proced slowly and safely with your learning curve, there's nothign wrong with starting trad early. In fact I try to expose most nOObs I take out to Trad as early as possible. Not saying get them to lead, just expost them to it. Cleaning pitches and ground practice to start. Then again I know enough about bolts to know that not every bolt was place right, and I trust a good nut more.... most times. Not opposed to sport, just not my first choice anymore.
