Turkmenistan men's national ice hockey team

The Turkmenistan men's national ice hockey team represents the country in international play. The national squad is run by the Turkmenistan Ice Hockey Federation, which is a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation. As of the latest rankings, the team sits 42nd in the world and 12th in Asia. Turkmenistan first appeared at an IIHF World Championship in the 2018 Division III Qualification tournament.

The first national team was put together in 2011, drawing players from four Ashgabat clubs: Oguzkhan, Alp Arslan, Shir, and Burgut. In 2013, the team played its first unofficial match, beating a side from Minsk City 7–2. Turkmenistan entered the 2017 Asian Winter Games and won its first official tournament game, defeating Malaysia 9–2. The team then took the division gold by beating Kyrgyzstan 7–3.

At the 2018 World Championship debut in Sarajevo, Turkmenistan swept all three games to earn promotion to Division III for 2019. In April 2019, playing in Sofia, Bulgaria, the team finished third out of six in its group at the Division III tournament, a historic result. Later that year, from late August to early September, retired Russian player Sergei Nemchinov ran an intensive training camp in Ashgabat and then joined the coaching staff, drawing up a preparation plan for the 2020 Division III Group A tournament.

Head coaches have included Rustam Kerimov (2013–2016), Bayram Allayarov (2016–2024), and Ilýas Weliýew (starting in 2025). The roster for the 2025 Asian Winter Games is led by head coach Ylýas Weliýew.
