For Scala 2.10 just replace:

    <properties>
        ...
        <scala.version>2.11.11</scala.version>
    </properties>

with

    <properties>
        ...
        <scala.version>2.10.6</scala.version>
    </properties>

and suffixes in all Play! dependency artifact ids from “_2.11” to “_2.10”, for example change:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.typesafe.play</groupId>
            <artifactId>play_2.11</artifactId>
            <version>${play2.version}</version>
        </dependency>

to

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.typesafe.play</groupId>
            <artifactId>play_2.10</artifactId>
            <version>${play2.version}</version>
        </dependency>
