2015 IPC Swimming World Championships – Mixed 4 × 50 metre freestyle relay explained

The Mixed 50 metre x 4 freestyle at the 2015 IPC Swimming World Championships was held at the Tollcross International Swimming Centre in Glasgow, United Kingdom from 13–17 July.

As with other disability relay events, the freestyle works on a points system whereby the classification numbers of each swimmer are totaled to give a number no higher than 20. This was the first time the World Championships have included a mixed sex event, after its successful introduction in the 2014 IPC European Swimming Championships. The race requires each team to be made up of two male and two female competitors.
