The 2011 World Financial Group Continental Cup of Curling was held January 13–16 at the Servus Credit Union Place in St. Albert, Alberta .
It was the 7th Continental Cup, the first since December 2008. No event was held in 2009 due to the 2009 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials .
The event once again featured North America vs. the World. The North American team featured the Olympic silver medal-winning Cheryl Bernard rink, the Olympic gold medal-winning Kevin Martin rink, the current World champion rink of Kevin Koe , current Canadian champion Jennifer Jones , and Erika Brown and Pete Fenson , the current American champion rinks. The World team was represented by 2009 European champion Niklas Edin , 2010 European bronze medalist Mirjam Ott , World champion Andrea Schöpp , European champion Thomas Ulsrud , Olympic bronze medalist Wang Bingyu and a composite rink featuring former world champion David Murdoch , Olympic bronze medalist Ralph Stöckli and teammate Simon Strübin as well as 2007 World silver medalist Andreas Lang .
The North American team dominated the event, winning it outright before the final day, the second time in the history of the event. The North American team also set a record for the most points won in the history of the cup, breaking the previous record of 290 points set by the North American team in 2007.
