Early inhabitants of the Credit River Valley were the Mississauga Indians, a branch of the Ojibway nation. They came to the river mouth regularly to trade furs for French and British wares, often buying goods on credit; hence the name Credit River. In 1805, the Mississaugas sold part of their land and reserved one mile on either side of the Credit for fishing and hunting.

Just beyond the one mile boundary to the West, the first group of settlers to arrive in Clarkson included the Merigolds, Mongers, Jarvises, and the Clarksons, all United Empire Loyalists who journeyed from New Brunswick and New York in 1807-08.

Warren Clarkson arrived in Toronto Township, as the area was then known, in 1808, at the age of fifteen. He, together with his wife Susan, bought 100 acres of land in 1819, where he could farm and build a house. 1850 officially opened the road, which ran down the side of his property, as "Clarkson Road." In 1855, the Great Western Railway Company was looking for land on which to lay tracks so that Clarkson could be accommodated by train. Some of this land came from the Clarkson farm where a station was eventually built and named "Clarkson Station."

Clarkson Lorne Park is now a small, thriving community on the north shores of Lake Ontario. Incorporated as part of Mississauga, Clarkson has a population of about 45,000 people and has flourished, thanks to its history as a diverse community. Clarkson's baseball programme has also developed and matured thanks to the many volunteers who continue to dedicate their time and to the players who work hard at improving their skills.

Clarkson Lorne Park is proud of its competitive spirit and successes both in the development of its ball players and the Ontario Provincial Championships it has won:
