age limits
Who may participate
Age limits are minimum or maximum ages set for participation, eligibility, or access.
Laws establish age limits for drinking, voting, driving, and retirement.
Organizations impose them for membership or competition: The league has strict age limits for youth players.
Age limits reflect assumptions about maturity, capability, or appropriate life stages, though they're often debated as arbitrary.
