The Port Colborne Recreationists were a Canadian junior ice hockey team in the Ontario Hockey Association, based in Port Colborne, Ontario. The Recreationists played at the Junior B level through the 1940s, with the exception of one season.
Port Colborne won the 1943 Junior B championship known as the Sutherland Cup, defeating the Milton Bombers two games to none.[1] After winning the Junior B title, Port Colborne was promoted to the Junior A level, which was in need of teams. The Recreationists completed one full season and then folded early during the 1944–45 season.
