Chess Tournament

Festival atmosphere at the Faculty of Sciences and Computer Engineering on Saturday December 18 where a Chess tournament was organized by a game played simultaneously by Dr. Hadi Jardack, against 18 chess players that included among them three teachers! Congratulation to Jack Fadel and Dany Hayeck who have almost won the drawn game.

Less than 50 minutes were sufficient to the ex- junior champion of Lebanon to checkmate”  all his  opponents under the admiring regards of the students who have come in a large number to watch this event, the first of his kind at USEK , and which introduces this millennium game highly educative and which is adopted recently as an Olympic discipline.

A great thanks to the international referee, Mr. Elias Khairallah who has supervised the game, and who had the kindness to give us the use of the 18 games and to organize this activity in the required standards.

Mr. Fouad Saliba, director of the Sport Service was also present and was delighted by the initiative of the Faculty that gave him the opportunity to meet Mr. Khairallah in order to introduce eventually, the practice of Chess as a sport discipline having two levels: a sport course of 1 credit offered to the students, and a sportive club to participate in academic tournaments.
