2011 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships – Division II
International ice hockey competition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2011 World Junior Ice Hockey Championship Division II was a pair of international ice hockey tournaments organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation. Six teams played in each of the two groups. In addition to the usual promotion and relegation, the format (following this year) changed from two parallel tournaments, to two tiered tournaments.[1] This means that the teams who finished 2nd and 3rd will be grouped together with the two relegated teams from Division I, and the teams who finished 4th and 5th will be grouped with the two promoted teams from Division III.

The Group A tournament was played in Tallinn, Estonia, from 13 to 19 December 2010.[2]
