In December 2011, Turner was named as one of twenty-eight players to be on the 2012 Summer Olympics Australian men's national training squad. This squad will be narrowed in June 2012. He trained with the team from 18 January to mid-March in Perth, Western Australia.[11][12][13] His inclusion as possible 2012 Olympian came after having only made regular appearances with the team shortly before that decision was made.[2] In February during the training camp, he played in a four nations test series with the teams being the Kookaburras, Australia A Squad, the Netherlands and Argentina.[1] He played for Kookaburras during the series.
