I've been playing foosball competitively since I was around 14-15, and what I can say is that it's easy to pick up, can be done at 60 ( Todd Loffredo is around that and still in the elite ). It's a weird thing, it looks physical and it seems like you need fast reflexes to do it on the highest level but it's not true. The technique can be picked up in ~2 years with 2 hours of daily practice. What you need and what is hard to get is a calm mind and good decision making which could take a long time to get right, but some people are just born with that. You can easily start in your 30s and be at the highest level, or even be a world champion ( I've seen a few people starting in their 20s and get to that ).
