History

Rough House was established in 2002 by Paul Daley and Matt Howell. They competed in one of the United Kingdoms first MMA events, the KSBO, where they met Dan Hardy, and Nathan Leverton head coach at Leicester Shootfighters. After Daley and Howell had great success on the amateur circuit, they decided to turn professional and made regular visits to the United States to seek out the best training. On their return, the team grew as Andre Winner, Jim Wallhead and Dean Amasinger all joined.
