The 2011 Men's Hockey Champions Trophy, officially known as the Owen G Glenn FIH Men's Champions Trophy, was the 33rd edition of the Champions Trophy men's field hockey tournament. The International Hockey Federation (FIH) confirmed India as the host country,[1] and announced New Delhi as the host city on February 4, 2011. The tournament dates were December 3 to December 11, 2011.[2] However, on September 6, 2011, the FIH announced that India would no longer host the tournament due to a governance issue,[3] and announced Auckland, New Zealand, as the new host on September 13, 2011 with the same time schedule.[4] The tournament was held at North Harbour Hockey Stadium.
Australia won the title for the fourth consecutive and twelfth time total by defeating Spain 1–0 in the final.[5]
