# 2011 Women's European Cricket Championship

The 2011 Women's European Cricket Championship was an international cricket tournament held in Ireland from 17 to 19 August 2011. It was the eleventh edition of the Women's European Championship.
Similar to earlier editions, in this edition too, three teams participated including the hosts, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Scotland. As Scotland did not have One Day International (ODI) status at the time of the tournament, matches involving them did not have ODI status and was considered as List-A matches.
Netherlands won both of its round-robin matches to claim its first title. Similar to earlier editions, no final was played. Netherlands' Helmien Rambaldo and Esther Lanser led the tournament in runs and wickets, respectively. All the matches were played at Sportpark Maarschalkerweerd, Utrecht.
