Stephen Willy learned the rules from his father at seven. His first tournament did not immediately inspire him, and he took a break before returning to chess at about nine. Homeschooling gave him flexibility to study and compete, including regular Chess4Life events. During the pandemic, he moved into online tournaments and independent study. By 2026, he had become a FIDE master and described the competitive element of chess as a lasting attraction.
