The Kyrgyzstan national ice hockey team (Kyrgyz: Кыргызстандын улуттук шайбалуу хоккей курамасы; Russian: Сборная Киргизии по хоккею с шайбой) is the national ice hockey team of Kyrgyzstan. They are controlled by the Ice Hockey Federation of the Kyrgyz Republic and has been an associate member of the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF).[2] Kyrgyzstan is currently not ranked in the IIHF World Ranking and have not entered in any World Championship tournaments or at any Olympic Games, but have played in the Challenge Cup of Asia, a regional tournament for lower-tier hockey nations in Asia. The IIHF announced that Kyrgyzstan will make its World Championship debut in 2019.[3]

History

Kyrgyzstan played its first game in 1962 during the Winter Spartakiad which was held in Sverdlovsk, USSR, in which they represented the Kirghiz Soviet Socialist Republic. Kyrgyzstan played seven games, winning both games against the Armenian SSR and losing five to the Ukrainian SSR, the Estonian SSR, the Latvian SSR, the Georgian SSR and the Lithuanian SSR respectively.[4] Kyrgyzstan returned to international play in 2011 where they competed in the Premier Division of the 2011 Asian Winter Games. In the first game of the tournament, Kyrgyzstan recorded their first ever win, defeating Thailand 15–4.[4] Kyrgyzstan went on to win the Premier Division after winning all six of their games and finishing on top of the table.[5]
