    (Bilkent University, 2021) Ahmad, Fahad; Salman, Abdul Wali Bin; Sayeed, Abu Backer; Faran, Muhammad; Bazil, Hassam
    Ahmet Robenson lived a very interesting life in which he played a major role in introducing Turkey to the world of sports. His notable contributions include making the first Turkish basketball team, being the goalkeeper of Galatasaray and later becoming the president of the club, organizing the first tennis and hockey matches in his high school, and introducing the concept of scouting in Turkey along with his brother Abdurrahman Robenson. He was also involved in social and educational projects which aimed to strengthen cultural ties between the US and the new Republic of Turkey. This research paper aims to explore how he was able to make these contributions, what kind of life did he live, and why ended up leaving Turkey in his later years.
