I am currently writing a capstone position paper about the optimum age for a person to start learning chess. I have come to the conclusion that the optimum age is 5-6. I need help brainstorming reasons though. So far I have: 1  Most grandmasters learn chess at this age. 2  Children's brains are like sponges at this age.
This competition remains unique in the State. No other major chess event in California has competition according to age alone. The tradition in the United States is for scholastic youth tournaments where the players compete by school grades. Most of the rest of the worlds use age as the criteria for competition.
