History

[edit]

Luxembourg played its first game in 2001 during a qualification game against Iceland for participation in Division III of the 2002 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships.[1] The game was held in Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, with Luxembourg losing 6–2.[2] The game was part of a three team qualification tournament which included Iceland, Ireland and Luxembourg.[2] The tournament was won by Iceland who won both of their games and gained promotion to the 2002 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, resulting in Luxembourg failing to qualify.[3] During the tournament Luxembourg won their first ever international game 10–0 against Ireland.[3]

In 2003, Luxembourg competed in Division III of the 2003 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, held in İzmit, Turkey.[4] The tournament included teams from Australia, Belgium, South Korea, and Turkey.[4] Luxembourg finished last in the tournament after losing all four of their games, including a 17–0 loss to South Korea, the worst defeat in team history.[4][1]
