The tournament served as a qualifier for the 2012 Summer Olympics.[2]

Australia won the tournament for the seventh time, defeating New Zealand in the three–game series by goal difference, after the teams finished equal on points.[3] Despite the Black Sticks' second place finish, the 2011 Oceania Cup held two qualifying allocations for the Olympic Games, meaning both teams qualified.[2]
