Winter Youth Olympics appearances (overview)

Turkey (officially competing as Türkiye) is scheduled to compete at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics in Gangwon, South Korea, from 19 January to 1 February 2024. This will be Turkey's fourth appearance at the Winter Youth Olympic Games, having competed at every Games since the inaugural edition in 2012.

The Turkish team comprises 24 athletes (6 men and 18 women) competing in five sports.[1] Short track speed skater Muhammed Bozdağ and ice hockey player Sidre Hacıosmanoğlu were the country's flagbearers during the opening ceremony.[2]

On 21 January, short track speed skater Muhammed Bozdağ earned the silver medal in the men's 1000 metres, becoming the first Turkish athlete to win a Winter Olympic medal outside of mixed-NOC competition.[3] Ice hockey player Sidre Özer was the first Turkish athlete to win a Winter Olympic medal, earning bronze with the mixed-NOC "Team Blue" in the girls' 3x3 ice hockey mixed tournament at the 2020 Winter Youth Olympics.[4]
