History
Tornado Luxembourg debuted in the 1987-88 season, and played in the Rheinland-Palatinat Liga, a German regional league, which they won. They then finished second in the qualification round for the Regionalliga Mitte Group, and thus qualified for the 1988-89 season. They only played in the Regionalliga for the 1988-89 season, as they finished in eighth place in their group, and failed to qualify for the following season. They then played in the Rheinland-Palatinat Liga until 2005, when they joined the FFHG Division 3, the fourth level of French ice hockey.
In Luxembourg, the club won the Luxembourg Championship seven times between 1994 and 2003, and the Luxembourg Cup eight times; in 1994, 1996, 1997, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, and 2012.
During the 2012-2013 forward Colm Cannon became the all-time leading goal scorer of the Tornados.
With there being so few ice hockey players in Luxembourg, there are generally a number of players from Tornado on the national team. Eight players from Tornado Luxembourg played for the national team in 2009.
