The winner of this tournament, New Zealand, was promoted to Division III (renamed II A) for the 2012 championships. Initially, the tournament was to include Estonia,[2] however the IIHF provide no reason for their absence and did not replace them. Despite having only five teams, the last-placed team in the group, South Africa, was temporarily relegated to Division V (renamed Division II B Qualification).[3] The number of next year's entrants shrank so South Africa was able to remain at this level.
