Jamaican team for World Athletics Championships 2025: Know top finishers at trials in line for selection ft Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

With the conclusion of the track and field trials on June 29, the Jamaican team for the 2025 World Championships is taking shape. However, there are several provisions, such as the JAAA selection policy and World Athletics rankings that can influence the list.

The Jamaican team for the Tokyo event in September will consist of a unique combination of experience and youth. On one hand will be veterans of the nation, such as Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson, while on the other will be talented young stars such as Kishane Thompson, Oblique Seville and Ackeem Blake.

Fraser-Pryce will be representing the 100m field for Jamaica. She finished third at the 100m trials after clocking a run time of 10.91 seconds, behind Tina Clayton and Jackson. After making it to the Jamaican team for the Worlds, Fraser-Pryce also spared a moment and lauded the immense support she received during her race.

Notably, Jackson will be featuring in both the 100m and 200m events, the latter of which is due to her status as the defending champion. Thompson performed impressively at the trials and clocked a season-leading run time of 9.75 seconds to book his place in the team.

On that note, let's know all the possible athletes who will be lining up for the Jamaican team in Tokyo later this year.
