Canada cruised through pool play with three easy victories. The Iroquois Nationals beat Ireland and the host Czech Republic by wide margins, but just edged the United States 11–10.{{cite news |url= https://sports.yahoo.com/top/blog/canada/post/Canada-dominates-as-World-Indoor-Lacrosse-Champi?urn=top-357071 |title= Canada dominates as World Indoor Lacrosse Championship finds its way |first=Andrew |last=McKay |work= Yahoo Sports |date=May 24, 2011}}
