2006–07 season
The team held a survey to name the team and 66% of the people preferred the name Kebekwa (a phonetic spelling of the word Québécois, "Quebecers").
The team earned a trip to the playoffs in their inaugural season and were defeated by the Strong Island Sound 108-97 in the first round.
2007–08 season
Going with a fresh new image, the team changed its logo and color scheme. The team won its season opener 108-106 against the Manchester Millrats on October 12, 2007 at the Pavillon de la jeunesse. While the team finished with a 15-19 record, the Pavillon was the location of the 2008 ABA Championship Series, so the team gained an automatic Final VIII berth. Home-court advantage could not save them from first-round defeat, as the Kebs lost in the quarterfinals to the Texas Tycoons by a score of 122-120.
After the ABA playoffs, the team chose to join the PBL, announcing they would simply be the Quebec Kebs.
2009–10 season
The Kebs changed their home arena from the Pavillon de la Jeunesse in Quebec City to PEPS at L'Université Laval in Laval.
2010–11 season
