Club History


The Assassins are managed by Paul Rose and Head Coach Barry Smith (a former GB Inline Skater Hockey International). The club currently field Peewee (under 12's) and Youth (under 15's) and Junior (under 19's) teams in the SHESA/LESHA league which merged at the start of the 2013 season. The club trains at The Howard School, Derwent Way, Rainham, Kent every Wednesday evening from 6pm - Peewee, 7.30 - Youth and Thursday at 7.30 pm for Juniors.

Having formed in mid 2011 the Assassins took part in 2 regional tournaments finishing 2nd and 1st.

In 2012 the Assassins Peewee and Youth teams played their inuagural season in the SESHA League finishing second and fourth respectively. The Peewees also took part in the BISHA 9 team national 'development' tournament at the end of the 2012 season finishing an incredible 3rd place.

In 2013 the club competed in the newly merged South East and London East leagues - this expansion pitted experienced and successful teams against the Assassins in only their second season playing league standard hockey and it proved to be hugely competitive and physically demanding.

Despite their lack of experience the Assassins gave a good account of themselves with the Youth side finishing a respectable 4th and the Peewees being crowned League Champions snatching the title from Eastbourne Edge by the narrowest of margins - a +4 goal difference! The Peewees now go on to compete in the BISHA National Tournament at the Simply Skate Arena in Rotherham in mid November.

In 2015 the Youth team qualified for the European Championships held in Germany.

The drive and determination of all those involved in the club produced excellent first and second season results and achievements which stands the organisation in good stead for the future.

Medway Madness Ice Hockey Club were extremely proud to announce their affiliation with Medway's newest sports organisation - 'Medway Assassins' Roller Hockey Club.

On behalf of the 'Madness' management Warren said, "We are pleased to be linked to the Assassins and with many of the Madness players having close links with roller hockey this affiliation will be beneficial to both clubs - exciting times ahead!"
