The competition was held in New Caledonia from 27 August to 9 September 2011 with the final played at the Stade Numa-Daly in Nouméa.[1]
Twelve men's teams competed at the Games, with the top five teams advancing to the 2012 Pacific Cup with New Zealand national under-23 football team in February 2012.[2]
The tournament had initially been planned as part of the qualification tournament for the 2012 OFC Nations Cup,[3] and Oceania Football Confederation's (OFC) qualification tournament for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. However, FIFA announced a revised format for both tournaments in June 2011.[4]
