HERITAGE
His father Galip Oruz moved from Turkey to Germany at age 10. "Sport is not about where you come from, but that you want to have fun playing with others. That's how we experienced it. We are not really immigrants, our father was. But we are proud of the history and our roots." (selinoruz.de, 01 Jan 2020; integration.dosb.de, 07 Dec 2017)

FAMILY SUPPORT
She says it has benefited her to have her older brother Timur play hockey at the same level. "We exchange information regularly and try to support each other as best we can. I would say that it is an advantage to have someone with the same 'fate' and everyday life in the family. I am very proud of him." (web.hockey.de, 04 Jun 2019)
