Accordingly, there are 2 relay athletes will take place in the near future. The Asian Championship Athletics will take place from June 10 to June 15 in Thailand. Meanwhile, the world championship will take place in the city of Nassau (Bahamas) on May 4 and 5. Both of these tournaments are considered to be the Paris 2024 Olympic qualifying round.
After assessing the qualifications of the athletes and the two tournaments took place quite close, the Vietnamese athletics decided not to participate in the World Prize and focused on the Asian tournament. “The Asian Championship relay 2024 is a suitable tournament for the preparation and dispute ability of the athletes,” – a leader of the Vietnam Athletics Federation. Specifically, the Vietnam Women's 4x400m content relay team will set out for the tournament.
In athletics, the Olympic Games are often granted to athletes who surpass the Olympic standard that is clearly defined along with the rankings on the world rankings. However, relay content will not have the Olympic standard but only based on the achievement of the world championship and then the rankings for a period of 1.5 years before the Olympics take place.
The Olympic Games in the relay content of 4x400m will be allocated to 16 teams, of which 14 teams leading the 2024 World Championship in Bahamas and the remaining 2 are based on achievements in other tournaments. Thus, Vietnamese athletics will try to become one of the two teams without attending the 2024 World Championship.
At ASIAD 2023, the female 4x400m relay team of Vietnam Tel on the fourth, missing medal in the last seconds. The achievements of the girls are 3 minutes 31 seconds 61. Although not winning the medal, this is still the best team of relaying the achievement of Vietnamese athletics in recent years.
