The Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (lit.'Quebec Student Sports Network'), abbreviated RSEQ, is the governing body of primary and secondary school, collegiate, and university sport in Quebec. It also serves as a regional membership association for Canadian universities which assists in co-ordinating competition between their university level athletic programs and providing contact information, schedules, results, and releases about those programs and events to the public and the media. This is similar to what would be called a "college athletic conference" in the United States.
The RSEQ was founded in 1971 as the Association sportive universitaire du Québec/Quebec University Athletic Association, abbreviated as ASUQ and QUAA, following the reformulation of three university athletic associations spanning the universities of Ontario and Quebec. After the merger between Quebec's university, collegiate, and high school governing bodies in 1989, the amalgamated association was named the Fédération du sport scolaire du Québec/Quebec Student Sports Federation, abbreviated FSSQ and QSSF. The current name has been in use since November 2010.[1][2]
(*Laval's PEPS stade extérieur has an official seated capacity of 12,257 although it has held a standing room crowd of over 18,000 and as such is often listed as having a maximum capacity of 18,000.)
