2022 World Athletics Championships – World Team
The World Team trophy of the 2022 World Athletics Championships was awarded to the teams with the most points earned based on points won by the athletes in each event. The World Team Champions' title was awarded to the hosts United States, which accumulated a total of 328 points, and were crowned "World Team Champions". Jamaica (second team with 110 points) and Ethiopia (third with 106 points) also received trophies. On 11 March 2022, World Athletics announced that, for the first time, the top three teams in the all-around points table would be awarded with team trophies. The all-around points table is a team ranking system used commonly in the sports of athletics which consists of assigning points to each athlete (usually the top eight finishers) based on their overall final placing, then aggregates the points of all athletes in a team to provide a final team standing. At this World Athletics Championships, the top eight finalists in each event scored points for their nation, with 8 points going to the gold medalists down to one point for each 8th place finisher. Non-finishers and disqualified athletes received zero points. Placing table
