Seventy Teams Secure Qualification for Paris Olympics Post-World Athletics Relays

Following two days of electrifying competition at the World Athletics Relays Bahamas 24 (held on May 4-5, 2024), a total of 70 teams have earned qualification for relay events at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

In Nassau, fourteen teams in each of the five disciplines – the women’s and men’s 4x100m and 4x400m, along with the mixed 4x400m – have automatically secured places for Paris. The initial 40 qualifying teams were announced on Saturday, with the final 30 confirmed on Sunday after a second Olympic qualifying round for teams that missed out on the first day.

Teams that secured qualification on Saturday also ensured their participation in the respective World Relays finals on Sunday. These finals provided teams with opportunities to compete for prize money and secure Olympic lane seeding positions.
