In another branch of the gaming hobby, I noticed that tournament results included awards by age bracket: Best 55+, Best 60+, Best 65+, all the way up to Best 85+! Would you like to see wargaming tournaments do this too?

Nope. Although I'd be ok if it was done in reverse, I.e.Best under 18, Best under 14, etc…

I agree with Tommy. I don't mind a "Juniors Division" or two to encourage younger gamers but, for adults, no.
