The Netherlands demolished China 21-1 in the other Pool C game played today.

In Pool B, the Haudenosaunee Native American team had already been confirmed as group winners which sealed their spot in the play-in games.

The winners will be joined in the last eight by all six teams from the "elite" Pool A who will advance regardless of where they finish.

Pool A, which includes defending champions United States, hosts England, Australia, Scotland, Wales and Canada, will also conclude tomorrow.
