The International Association of Athletics Federations World Indoor Championships were inaugurated as the World Indoor Games in 1985 in Paris, France and were subsequently renamed in 1987 as they are known today.
History
They have been held every two years except for when they were held in consecutive years 2003 and 2004 to facilitate the need for them to be held in alternate years to the main IAAF World Championships (outdoors) in the future.
Championships
Events
The events held have remained more or less the same since they originated with the main alterations coming in the earlier years.
The 4x400m relay race for both men and women was added to the full schedule in 1991 as was the women's triple jump, but only as an exhibition event before gaining full status at the following championships.
1993 saw the last of the racewalking events included and a 1600m medley relay was tried but dropped for future games. This same year a men's heptathlon and women's pentathlon were successfully introduced as non-championship events and have remained in place since.
The event is likely not to feature a traditional athletics power, Russia. Following a WADA investigation into widespread and institutional doping practices in Russian athletics, the IAAF provisionally suspended Russia's membership of the organisation in November 2015, effectively excluding the country both from hosting events and entering competitions.
Russia's effective exclusion from the tournament was confirmed in November 2015 when it was announced by IAAF that a decision over lifting its provisinal suspension from international athletics would not be taken until the end of March at the earliest.

Kill 'em all, let God sort 'em out Giva fuck [Sticky Fingaz] This is AK-47, banana clip rap Bloodstain your album cover before it get wrapped P-89 your mind, you won't forget that Caught behind enemy lines, you gonna get clapped On chase got shot in the face Nine niggaz, broad to nothin, while the slug judged his fate Shoulda got low 'steada tryna flossin his cake Reaction was slow, reflexes way too late These are warzone niggaz, home sweet home niggaz Killers ain't afraid of nothin, it's on niggaz M-14 your legs with one in your head Put chumps to sleep, lay 'em in deathbed [Chorus] You get shot up Go in the hood you not from You get shot up Twenty-two shots'll leave you numb You get shot up Startin the beef with no gun You get shot up Blah! You get shot up, blah! You get shot up Leavin wit' bitches after the club You get shot up Stuck at the light, sittin on dubs You get shot up Left for dead in your own blood You get shot up Blah! You get shot up [Sticky Fingaz] You never saw the nigga face that was holdin the glock You just heard shots then the nigga next to you dropped Til you seen blood you ain't even know you got popped Felt your body temperature change from cold to hot Left you for dead, you still alive, count your blessings In the middle of the street holdin in your intestines All they wanted was the money, you had to be dumb Jumped for the gun, he blew off and punctured your lung Your man came back and found you scrollin on the pavement Grabbed you in his arms and said "hold on son you gon' make it!" Your vital signs droppin, your haloucinatin "Somebody call the ambulance!" If you live it's amazing One still in your stomach, two went through your chest Your boy tellin you "don't talk son, save your breath" The more you walk to the light the more it's hurtin less You gettin nautious from the smell of burnin flesh Cryin to God, think he can hear you beg? Tears in your eyes, screamin "I can't feel my legs!" You closer to death, paramedics pumpin your chest Blowin you breath, you dyin but you under arrest How it feel to see a man dead knowin you next I guess that's what niggaz meant by blood in the x Tryin to hang on but you gon' wish you was dead Cause if you live the rest of your life it's in the feds [Chorus] You get shot up Go in the hood you not from You get shot up Twenty-two shots'll leave you numb You get shot up Startin the beef with no gun You get shot up Blah! You get shot up, blah! You get shot up Leavin wit' bitches after the club You get shot up Stuck at the light, sittin on dubs You get shot up Left for dead in your own blood You get shot up Blah! You get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up You get shot up, you get shot up
