The 2011 IIHF World Championship Division III was an international ice hockey tournament run by the International Ice Hockey Federation. The tournament was contested between 11–17 April 2011 in Cape Town, South Africa.[1] Prior to the start of the tournament, the Mongolian national team announced they would withdraw, citing financial reasons. All games against them were counted as a forfeit, with a score of 5–0 for the opposing team.[2]

The UAE decided to withdraw from the 2011 Division III tournament in Cape Town, South Africa because they refused to compete against Israel, who was also in the tournament.

Israel won all five of its games by a combined score of 57-9, and was promoted to the 2012 IIHF World Championship Division II.[3] Israel's Eliezer Sherbatov led the tournament in points, goals, assists, and +/-, earning 26 points (14 goals + 12 assists) in four games.[4] He was named the best forward of the tournament.[4][5]
