Is grading juniors under 14 that important ?
I played competitive chess from 1969-1972 against all the other top juniors in Scotland whilst being under 14 and ungraded. It's the quality & quantity of competition that is the most important in junior development not a number. Players can be selected based on no. of junior tournaments won.
