State-of-the-Art Facilities
“The Quebec Games are an excellent opportunity to showcase the quality of our sports facilities,” says Isabelle La Vergne, Director of Physical Activity and Sports at UQTR. “[…] The investments made in recent years at the swimming pool, in the soccer field and in our gymnasiums have made the CAPS a place designated for the presentation of this big meeting.”
Administrative Hub
Beyond sports competitions, UQTR will serve as a administrative hub for the Quebec Games. The Albert-Tessier pavilion will house the administrative power station of the organizing committee, complete with an accreditation center for athletes, coaches, and volunteers. The Health Pavilion will host a medical service center, staffed by professionals from the Integrated University Health and Social Services Center of Mauricie-et-du-Center-du-Québec (CIUSSS MCQ) and UQTR.
