Well I mean, age is a disadvantage to most things except life wisdom, and there’s not really many sports centered on that. But if we make the definition “games”, then there is. Chess, for one? Until you start losing your memory in the old age, one would think experience just improves chess play. Hard to really call it a sport though. I think something like archery or shooting in general might not be too bad. You’re pretty stationary, it’s not about reaction times (unless you’re doing skeet or something) and it’s mostly about technique. Like that Turkish Olympic winner? He could’ve been 50, easily.
But what is always definitely a disadvantage is inexperience, I would say. Which is what youth basically is.
