The 2011 Women's EuroHockey Nations Championship was the 10th edition of the EuroHockey Nations Championship field hockey championship for women. It was held from 20 August to 27 August 2011 in Mönchengladbach, Germany.

This tournament also served as a qualifier for the 2012 Olympics, with both finalists earning a spot. In case that England would have played the final, the third placed team qualifies instead, as England cannot qualify as a nation for the olympics (they automatically participate as Great Britain).

The Netherlands won the title for the eighth time after defeating Germany 3–0 in the final.
