The athletics competitions at the 1934 Women's World Games in London were held from 9 to 11 August 1934 at the White City Stadium.
The track and field athletes competed in 12 events: running (60 metres, 100 metres, 200 metres, 800 metres, 4 x 100 metres relay and hurdling 80 metres), high jump, long jump, discus throw, javelin, shot put and pentathlon (100 metres, high jump, long jump, javelin and shot put).[1]
It was the first time the Women’s World Games included the women's pentathlon. This was in stead of the triathlon event of 1930.[2][3]
