This tournament also served as a qualifier for the 2012 Olympics, with both finalists earning a spot. In case that England would have played the final, the third placed team qualifies instead, as England cannot qualify as a nation for the olympics (they automatically participate as Great Britain).[2]

The Netherlands won the title for the eighth time after defeating Germany 3–0 in the final.[3]
