Remarks

When you load a control into a container control, the container raises all of the added control's events until it has caught up to the current event. However, the added control does not catch up with postback data processing. For an added control to participate in postback data processing, including validation, the control must be added in the Init event rather than in the Load event.

"When you load a control into a container control,"

This means you have to Control zzzzzzzzzz = yyyyyyyyy.LoadControl() then xxxxxxxx.controls.Add(zzzzzzzzzz);

Note xxxxxxxx and yyyyyyyyy do not need to be the same templateControl (for example I use the page to loadcontrol and then a placeholder within a control on the page to add it.) when the control is added the events are called.
