The Turkish Team Championship (1st Chess League) was inaugurated in 1995. In 2004, it changed its name to Super League, but after the Turkish Isbank assumed sponsorship in 2006, the name was changed once more to the Turkish Isbank Chess League.
In the final round of the championship Istanbul Besiktas Jimnastik Club won their match against Antalya Deniz Gençlik Sport Club and proved to be the strongest club in Turkey.
