From 1946 to 1968, MMHA teams had to go to Dixie Arena, Port Credit and Huron Park to Play their games. In the mid-60’s practice was held at Nobleton Arena. In 1966, the Malton Memorial Recreation Association Incorporated was formed to build Malton its own arena. On Saturday October 19, 1968 Malton Arena was officially opened by Chic Murray.
