The team from Dardanels and Bosporus will very probably be the main opponent for Luxembourg in battle for promotion to Division Two of World Championship.
Turkish hockey made its first steps on the international level in May 1990. Istanbul Paten Kulübü (Istanbul Skating Club) played three games against the U18 juniors of Den Haag, The Netherlands, and suffered defeat with a wide margin in all games. The Turkish National Senior team took part in World Championship Pool C in South Africa two years later. Presenting themselves for first time at the international level. The first game between Luxembourg and Turkey was played in Johannesburg with result 10:5; Gilbert Schuller and Tom Jungblut both scored a hattrick for Luxembourg.
