The 3rd IAAF World Relays , unofficially also known as the 3rd Season World Championships , took place on April 22nd and 23rd, 2017 at the Thomas Robinson Stadium in Nassau .
Competitions and qualification standards
In the third of the IAAF discharged World Relay competitions were held in four disciplines, rather than each for men and women. Including the Olympic distances 4 × 100 and 4 × 400 meters , as well as the rarely held disciplines 4 × 200 and 4 × 800 meters. There was also a mixed 4 x 400 meter relay.
The winners of the disciplines are not official world champions. World champions over 4 × 100 and 4 × 400 meters remained the winners of the 2015 World Championships in Beijing. Instead of a medal table, a point system was used (8 points for 1st place etc. up to one point for 8th place) to determine the order of the participating nations across disciplines. The winning nation received the Golden Baton .
The top 8 over 4 × 100 and 4 × 400 meters qualified directly for the 2017 World Athletics Championships in London .
Participating Nations
In total, 35 national athletics federations sent 509 female and male athletes to the World Championships. For India , the Czech Republic and Belarus it was the first participation in the IAAF World Relays.
