Hi there,
My son is 6 years old and he is good at chess as of now and interested to join the club. Hence would like to enquire about the place in the chess club.
Please advise.
Regards
Ram
I am afraid 6 is too young for our club Ram. It presents practical problems that we cannot really manage. I suggest chesskid.com to keep them going for now …
