Let C be an arbitrary Grothendieck site. The purpose of this note is to show that, with the closed model structure on the category S Pre(C) of simplicial presheaves in hand, it is a relatively simple matter to show that the category S Pre(C)stab of presheaves of spectra (of simplicial sets) satisfies the axioms for a closed model category, giving rise to a stable homotopy theory for simplicial presheaves. The proof is modelled on the corresponding result for simplicial sets which is given in [1], and makes direct use of their Theorem A.7.

This result gives a precise description of the associated stable homotopy category Ho(S Pre(C))stab, according to well known results of Quillen [6]. One will recall, however, that it is preferable to have several different descriptions of the stable homotopy category, for the construction of smash products and the like.
