has there been any attempt to convince younger people to play Redemption?(i am not a regular tourney-goer or convention-goer so I woundnt know...)
Who is going to be the redemption crowd when all the current champs are old or occupied to go tourneys? Im assuming many of the champs offspring and thier friends(also outliers like me: im 14)

Umm...... this isn't a sport. There's no physical activity. You can play until you're old as long as you don't go crazy like Count Fount.

The Austin MN has a playgroup filled with 11 year olds. One of whom was 12th at Nationals. That's above Tim and Justin. I believe she was top table last round.

Two of them (including the 12th place) started when they were 8 or 9 though.

I'm actually a horrible judge of age. I know they're really young though.

I'm aware of a Redemption playgroup in (of all places) Northern Maine, about 3 hours north of me.  I don't believe any of them are aware of this forum, but I know there are several young people that are part of it.  Might be time to tap into their influence....

At North Heights Lutheran Church(where NATs was hosted) every year Bill (everytribe) hosts "Redemption Mini Camp."
This event is for the purpose of teaching the campers how to play, and getting them started on a deck.  the camp is attended by about 30-40 kids, and 15ish Helpers.

People of all ages play Redemption, one can recruit anywhere.  I've had my biggest success with college students.
