If you qualify for a World Cup and expect to get an easy group, you are in the wrong sport. It doesn't work like that.
You can play a particular sport as long as you take good care of your body and you're confident enough and still have that hunger to where you want to be a part of an organization, a group of individuals where you feel you can contribute to the success of that team.
You have to have coaches willing to adapt.
