What does PEPS mean in Academic & Science?

PEPS

The Pavillon de l'éducation physique et des sports de l'Université Laval, usually called PEPS for short, is a sports complex located in Quebec City, Quebec, on the campus of the Université Laval. Opened in 1970, PEPS features an outdoor stadium, an indoor stadium, two indoor swimming pools, basketball and tennis courts, a fitness centre, and two ice hockey arenas that can be combined into one to host long track speed skating. For the 1976 Summer Olympics, it hosted four women and seven men's team handball competitions. The main arena seats 2,000 and was home to the reborn Quebec Remparts of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League between 1997 and 1999, when they moved back to their traditional home, the Colisée Pepsi. Since 2004, PEPS has been the home of the WTA Tour's Coupe Banque Nationale. From 2009 to 2013 PEPS became home to the Quebec Kebs basketball franchise in the National Basketball League of Canada. A major expansion of the complex took place in 2010-2012: among others, an indoor olympic size swimming pool, a 3,000 seats gymnasium and a covered soccer stadium were added to the already existing facilities. The outdoor stadium was also improved.
