The younger you are the better you can become, use this to your advantage.

Any age is perfect to start! I myself started when I was 7, quit after a bit, and rejoined + really saw that I loved chess when I was your age.

It’s easier to learn when you are younger, and if you start too late, it gets harder to be competitive, and impossible to reach the top.

I’m 13 I think the younger you are the more time you have to improve

I started playing two days ago and I feel that I have become very good and I really want to play against professionals in the game

You learn by losing (and remembering what it was that made you lose), so play on!

I'm ten and I woop my Dad's 50 year old butt a lot so don't feel dumb, you're doing great.👍🏻

I think it's awesome. The younger the better. Your brain is going learn and retain a lot as you get older. You will have an advantage because younger minds tend to have a better memory
