Hungary won both the Division I qualification tournament and the Division I tournament itself in what was described as the "biggest success in Hungarian women's hockey."[4] After winning all ten of their games across the qualification and Division I tournament combined, the Hungarians earned the opportunity to compete against the elite hockey nations in the 2013 Top Division tournament, for which more than fifteen of the twenty players from the 2012 roster remained eligible.[4]
