History
The St. Albert Minor Baseball Association (SAMBA) started in 1973 under its original name, the St. Albert Minor Baseball League. It would formally adopt the SAMBA name in 1976 and was incorporated on May 27, 1977. The Legion Memorial Park started in 1979 which assisted the City with hosting the Alberta Summer Games during 1979. In 1977 the Ladies Auxiliary started. Expansion and facilities improvement were included in the Red Willow Urban Park Master Plan in 1992. The group has enjoyed the support of the St. Albert Legion. Renovation of facilities, including the clubhouse, was started with a $200,000 grant Community Facility Enhancement Program for Legion Memorial Park expansion and upgrading. The new clubhouse was opened in 1993.
