After the conclusion of the tournament the teams were distributed as follows:
Nepal & 
United States: Promoted to 2010 Division Four[4]
Bahrain& 
Singapore: Remain in 2012 Division Five[4]
Jersey & 
Fiji: Relegated to 2011 Division Six[4]
The match between the US and Nepal on 26 February was under investigation by the ICC for the crowd trouble and the calculations of the net-run rate which denied Singapore promotion to Division 4.[5] On 9 May, the ICC released a report, which upheld the umpires decisions during the match and retained the outcome of the tournament.[6]
The tournament was covered live on Nepal Television's second channel NTV2 or NTV Metro. This was the first time that any World Cricket League tournament was being broadcast live on TV. Only the games at Tribhuvan University ground were broadcast live.
