interlock play with the RSEQ was featured heavily. The conference was further reduced to two following the folding of the Memorial Sea-Hawks after the 2016–17 season, leaving the program in jeopardy since the AUS requires a three-team minimum for varsity leagues. However, the AUS allowed Dalhousie and the UNB Varsity Reds to play a transitional season before joining the RSEQ as full members for the 2018–19 season. On the national stage, in the U Sports men's volleyball championship, the men's volleyball team has finished with a silver medal in 1997 and with bronze medals in 1994 and 1995. Women's volleyball The Tiger's women's volleyball team has won the most conference championships in the AUS with 26 titles won, including nine in a row from 2013 to 2022. The program features a U Sports women's volleyball championship team, having won a gold medal in 1982. The team also won a silver medal in 1984. Club teams The Dalhousie Tigers offer students the opportunity to play club sports for their university in lieu of these sports not being supported at the varsity level. The sports include, but are not limited to, baseball, cheerleading, curling, field hockey, Canadian football, lacrosse, rugby, tennis, and ultimate frisbee. Some sports were formerly offered as varsity sports, but either retained or resurrected as informal club sports. Football The Tigers football team first began play as an intermediate team in 1947 in the Halifax City Canadian Football League. The program was in operation until 1976 when the school decided to cease its operations and funding. The team did not win a Jewett Trophy conference championship while playing in what is now the AUS. In 2010, with the support of Dalhousie alumni, volunteer coaches, and the Student Football Club Executive, the Tigers football team was revived as a club sport and began play in the upstart Atlantic Football League, along with the University of New Brunswick Saint John, University of New Brunswick Fredericton, and Holland College. The Tigers played in the Moosehead Cup in their inaugural year, but lost to the UNBSJ Seawolves by a score of 40–6 on November 20, 2010. The team had mixed success until they went undefeated in 2016 and captured their first Moosehead Cup on November 5, 2016, in a 29–11 victory over the three-time defending champion Holland Hurricanes. The Tigers won a second Moosehead Cup championship in 2018 with another undefeated season being
