Results

As the 2011 Under-21 World Cup Final was staged in Russia, the Russian team was seeded directly into the Final. The other three finalists were to be determined in two Semi-Finals on May 28.
However, Sweden, who qualified for the Final by winning Semi-final 1, and Australia who qualified by winning Semi-final 2, both withdrew from the Final due to travel cost and visa problems. After both Poland and Finland declined to replace them, their places in the Final was taken by Ukraine and Czech Republic. Anticipating cost and visa problems, Great Britain declined to enter a team in the 2011 Junior World Cup.
On home soil, the Russians easily won their first Under-21 World Cup, scoring 61 points to claim a massive 30 point victory over reigning champions Denmark. Ukraine and Czech Republic finished tied on 29 points each with Ukraine's Aleksandr Loktaev defeating Václav Milík, Jr. in a runoff to decide third place.
