Six-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt has confirmed that he will race at the IAAF World Relays for the first time in his career.
The 28-year-old has struggled with injuries over the past year, but he will form part of Jamaica's team at the event which will take place in the Bahamas on May 2 and May 3.
"I'm happy to be part of the Jamaican team for the IAAF/BTC World Relays in the Bahamas," Athletics Weekly quotes Bolt as saying. "I am fit, healthy and ready to run.
"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."
Jamaica have not yet announced who else will be part of their team.
