IAAF changes name to World Athletics

The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) will now be officially called as World Athletics. The sport’s international governing body not only changed name of its Twitter handle but also the URL of its official website. The name change had been suggested in a bid to make the sport more accessible.

“We’re now World Athletics,” the sport’s international governing body’s website said.

“From information about our events and news about our amazing athletes, to the rules of the sport, historical stats and features to inspire you to be active, it’s all here. Over the coming months, we’ll be adding more content and continuing to improve the organisation of the content.”
