History

The team was founded as the women's representative team of the ice hockey club Rovaniemen Kiekko (RoKi) in 2012. RoKi Naiset quickly established themselves as perennially successful competitors in the Naisten Mestis, the second-tier women's ice hockey league in Finland. In December 2019, RoKi earned promotion to the Lower Division () of the Naisten Liiga, Finland's premier women's ice hockey league.

RoKi first played a full regular season in the Naisten Liiga during the 2020–21 season. They successfully defended their place in the Naisten Liiga/Auroraliiga during the post-season qualification series in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2025. The team was relegated to the Naisten Mestis after being swept in the 2026 Auroraliiga qualification by the Pelicans Lahti.
