Ice hockey at the 2011 Asian Winter Games was held in Astana (men) and Almaty (women) in Kazakhstan from 28 January to 6 February.
For these games, the men were competing in a 14-team tournament, and the women in a 5-team tournament. Ice hockey preliminaries actually started two days before the Opening Ceremony of the Games on 30 January.
For the first time ever, there were two divisions in the male competition so as to avoid one sided games seen at the last edition of the games.{{cite web|url=http://www.ocasia.org/News/IndexNewsRM.aspx?redirect=1671|title=UAE warms to ice hockey|date=28 January 2011|work=ocasia.org|access-date=28 January 2011}}{{Dead link|date=May 2019 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} India and Qatar withdrew {{cite web|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/Players-ready-to-shell-out-money-but-govt-says-no/Article1-652734.aspx|title=Players ready to shell out money but govt says no|date=20 January 2011|work=hindustantimes.com|access-date=20 January 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110204144521/http://www.hindustantimes.com/Players-ready-to-shell-out-money-but-govt-says-no/Article1-652734.aspx|archive-date=4 February 2011}}{{cite web|url=http://www.iihf.com/home-of-hockey/news/news-singleview/article/arena-for-a-medal.html?tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=187&cHash=9298cf636e|title=Arena for a medal|date=26 January 2011|work=iihf.com|access-date=26 January 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121018170110/http://www.iihf.com/home-of-hockey/news/news-singleview/article/arena-for-a-medal.html?tx_ttnews%5BbackPid%5D=187&cHash=9298cf636e|archive-date=18 October 2012}} and 12 nations competed in the Men's tournament.
