The tournament served as a qualifier for the 2002 FIH World Cup.[2]

Australia won the tournament for the second time, defeating New Zealand in the three–game series, 3–0.[3] However, as Australia had already qualified for the FIH World Cup as the host nation, the entry quota was awarded to New Zealand.
