2011 Oceania Cup

The 2011 Oceania Cup was held from 6–9 October in Hobart, Australia. Three teams were named to compete in the men's tournament, while only two women teams participated after Fiji withdrew.[1] Both, Australia and New Zealand are therefore already qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympics. On 21 September 2011, Fiji pulled out of the men's edition, so Australia and New Zealand are qualified for the Olympics.[2]
