Historia administrativa
The Creighton Mine Athletic Association (C.M.A.A.) was founded in November 1949 in Creighton Mine, Ontario. The objective of the C.M.A.A. was to sponsor and organize a variety of sports teams and athletic activities for the residents of Creighton Mine. Athletics were a popular and important pastime in the town and the International Nickel Company (Inco) took every opportunity to promote those activities, especially among their mining staff. The C.M.A.A. provided funding for the following sports teams in the area: senior men's baseball, junior boy's baseball, junior girls softball, women's softball, men's softball, basketball, soccer, tennis, badminton and hockey. The C.M.A.A. provided uniforms and equipment for the teams and arranged transportation for out-of-town games, sometimes using their own vehicles and sometimes hiring taxis. All Inco employees and non-employees living in the Sudbury and Creighton Mine areas were free to join any of the sports teams sponsored by the C.M.A.A. The association also funded a playground for Creighton Mine, planned a field day each year between 1951 and at least 1955 and provided money for, and took care of, the Creighton Mine Rink.
To fund these endeavors the C.M.A.A. collected dues from their members, had monthly dances, hosted a weekly bingo night until March 1953 and raffled off prizes a number of times per year. Meetings were held at the Employees Club at Inco in Creighton Mine.
The C.M.A.A. dissolved in 1973. By 1986, the town of Creighton Mine closed down due to the high cost of maintaining the area and residents were relocated to other, nearby communities.
