Brighton Stormers
about us
Brighton Street Stormers was created back in 1997 and run for many years by Ray and Linda Morton. The Club was born from the Keep Sussex Skating "KSS" Regency Blades Club who used to run outdoor weekly sessions in Brighton's Preston Park. KSS was set up in 1988 in response to the closure of Brighton's "Sussex" ice rink and continues to campaign to this day.
The game of Skater Hockey is fast and exciting, operating
under similar rules to Ice Hockey although visually it has it's differences.
Players wear inline roller skates instead of ice skates. Stormers have teams
playing play in both the SESHA Ball league, part of the British Inline Skater
Hockey Association (BiSHA) and the BIPHA South East puck league, part of the
British Inline Puck Hockey Association (BIPHA).
