Format
Compared to the World Cup, the new tournament has undergone significant changes in the format of the event. Now, only teams from four continents took part in it, each of which exhibited 2 participants in each of the 40 disciplines of the Cup (3 participants were allowed to enter the long and medium distances, two best results were counted). The system of scoring has remained the same (1st place - 8 points, 2nd place - 7 points ... 8th place - 1 point).
The selection of participants in the team was carried out by continental athletics federations. The European team was determined by the results of the European Championship 2010 , the African team - the African Championship 2010 , America and Asia with Oceania were completed based on the rating of the season.
Separate men's and women's counts were abolished, now the teams fought for one Cup [2] .
Team Championship
According to the results of two days of struggle, the European team won, gaining 429 points, America lagged just 9.5 points (419.5) behind. However, a few years after a series of doping disqualifications and cancellation of the results, the competition results were reviewed, and four years before the start of the next Continental Cup, the main trophy of 2010 was handed over to the American team [3] .
