The Dutch and British teams reached the final after winning their respective semi-final games. The Netherlands were declared winner of the tournament following the withdrawal of Great Britain. After two members of the British women's team tested positive for COVID-19, the British decided to withdraw from the tournament and return home without playing the final.[2] Spain took the bronze medal after winning the third place game from Germany.
The top four teams of the tournament qualified for the 2022 World Championships in Dubai.[3]
