Its not a question of restrictions, there are better options available. Send them somewhere chess has a greater sense of institutionalization and is more welcome, like St.Louis in the USA.

Coming back to this thread, there is an excellent (as always) article by Leonard Barden on the 2023 World Junior Chess Championships here:

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2023/ ... -be-a-star

World Juniors lacks big names but Maurizzi has potential to be a star

In that article, Leonard points out the visa troubles of the Indian contingent.
