Usain Bolt will continue his preparation for the World Championships later this year at the IAAF / BTC World Relays in the Bahamas next month.

Bolt marked his first individual race of the season with a win in Kingston on March 14, and he is looking forward to more competitive action in the coming weeks.

"I'm happy to be part of the Jamaican team for the IAAF / BTC World Relays in the Bahamas. I am fit, healthy and ready to run," said the 100 and 200 metres world record holder. 

"I hear the meet was a lot of fun last year and there was a great atmosphere.

"Jamaica has a long and successful tradition in relays and when we put on the national colours we always do our best to make the country proud."
