Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) is the national governing body for organized sports at colleges in Canada. It was formed in 1974. The CCAA hosts ten annual national championships. The CCAA's name in French is l'Association canadienne du sport collégial (ACSC).
Its equivalent body for governing sports at Canadian universities is Canadian Interuniversity Sport. Some institutions are members of both bodies for different sports.
