World Short Track Speed Skating Championships
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The World Short Track Speed Skating Championships are a professional short track speed skating event and held once a year in a different country.
In 1967, the International Skating Union adopted short track speed skating, although it did not organise international competitions until 1976. World Championships have been held since 1981, though earlier events later received that status.
Skaters perform individual races in the 500 meters, 1000 meters, 1500 meters, 3000 meters and a team effort in the 3000 meters relay, for women, and the 5000 meters relay for men.
