Anatolian Turks were one of the late additions in the 5 new expansion teams we welcomed in Dec/2006. They searched far-&-wide to find players of Mainland Turkish, Turkish Cypriot, Dagestani Russian, Bulgarian Turk, as well as a lonesome Thai from their current host country. The strange mix of players took a while to gel together, and with some ups-&-downs finished a respectable 7th overall, on a loss in the QFs to the eventual champion Cosmos, showing promise for the upcoming competitions in 2007.
