Continental hockey championship
The 2011 Men's EuroHockey Championship was the 13th edition of the EuroHockey Nations Championship , the biennial international men's field hockey championship of Europe organized by the European Hockey Federation . It was held from 20 to 28 August 2011 in Mönchengladbach , Germany .[ 2]
This tournament also served as a qualifier for the 2012 Olympics , with the finalists and the team finishing in third position earning a spot. However, because England finished in the top three, the fourth team (Belgium ) qualified instead, as England cannot qualify as a nation for the Olympics (they automatically participated as Great Britain ).[ 3]
The hosts Germany won its seventh title by defeating the Netherlands 4–2 in the final.[ 4] The defending champions England won the bronze medal by defeating Belgium 2–1.
