      The Provincial Recreation Programs Branch was created in 1990 within the Recreation Division of the Ontario Ministry of Tourism and Recreation. It resulted from a reorganization within the Recreation Division, in which the Recreation Branch and Sports and Fitness Branch were dissolved and replaced with the Provincial Recreation Programs Branch and the Recreation Policy Branch.

      The Provincial Recreation Programs Branch included the Provincial Organization Services Section, Provincial High Performance Development Section, Active Living Programs Section and the Provincial Leadership Section. In 1992 the branch was reformed as the Provincial Sport, Recreation and Leadership Branch within the Community Services Division.
