Potential Ability (sometimes abbreviated to PA) is an attribute for players and staff in Football Manager and in some Championship Manager games. It dictates the maximum that a person's Current Ability attribute can ever rise to, and therefore how good they can possibly become. It can be a value between 1 and 200 (with 200 being the best). 0 = 1-200 -1 = 1-30 -2 = 10-40 -3 = 30-60 -4 = 50-80 -5 = 70-100 -6 = 90-120 -7 = 110-140 -8 = 130-160 -9 = 150-180 -10 = 170-200
