Before the AWIHL

The Adelaide Assassins were one of the four founding teams in the Australian Women's Ice Hockey League, which officially began in 2007 after two showcase season were held previously.[2]

As the Assassins, Adelaide won both the 2005-06 Showcase Series and the 2006-07 Showcase Series.[2]

AWIHL

The newly formed Australian Women's Ice Hockey League had its inaugural season in the 2007-08 season, where the Adelaide Assassins would again win the championship. At this time the championship trophy awarded to the winners of the finals was the West Lakes Trophy, made by Westlakes Trophies and Framing.[3]

On August 8, 2011, the Adelaide Assassins merged with the Adelaide Adrenaline ice hockey club. The move was made to increase the exposure of women's hockey in Australia with the help of associating with an already well known brand with which they could share resources with.[4]
