 stive\, fierce and fun chess tournament!”</h4>\n<p>Attention all chess ent
 husiasts\, the DAC is back!  The Faculty of Computer Science at Dalhousie 
 University is proud to sponsor the second edition of the Dalhousie Atlanti
 c Cup (DAC)\, a chess tournament set to take place in the vibrant city of 
 Halifax\, Nova Scotia.  This tournament is a celebration of the noble game
  of chess\, offering a platform for both seasoned and emerging players to 
 showcase their skills.</p>\n<p>The Dalhousie Atlantic Cup is divided into 
 two sections. Section A is designed for players who hold a CFC or FIDE rat
 ing equal to or superior to 1700\, while section B is for players with a C
 FC or FIDE below 1700.  With 7 rounds and a time control of 1 hour plus a 
 30-second increment\, players will have in this tournament (FIDE and CFC-r
 ated for Section A\, CFC-rated for Section B) the opportunity to showcase 
 both their stamina and their skills.</p>\n<p>The top 8 participants from s
 ection A will advance to a subsequent CFC and FIDE rated tournament held o
 ne week later\, where they will vie for the coveted Dalhousie Atlantic Cup
 ! The champion will win a trophy\, and the other finalists will be honored
  with medals\, commemorating their achievement and participation.</p>\n<p>
 But the fun does not end there! Between the two tournaments\, participants
  can enjoy a variety of events:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>test their knowledge with a
  chess quiz for a chance to win prizes\;</li>\n<li>attend a musical surpri
 se!</li>\n<li>team-up with a chess buddy for spirited games of Bughouse\, 
 a fun and fast-paced team chess variant\;</li>\n<li>for a change of pace\,
  join for a friendly soccer match in a nearby park fostering camaraderie a
 nd sportsmanship among the chess community!</li>\n</ul>\n<p>The Dalhousie 
 Atlantic Cup is more than just a tournament. It is a celebration of the ri
 ch culture of the timeless game of chess. Whether you are a titled player 
 or an amateur\, we invite you to be a part of this great event. Make sure 
 to mark your calendars!</p>
