Bradley Hall (born 16 November 1990) is a British bobsledder. He competed in the two-man event and the four-man event at both the 2018 Winter Olympics [1] and the 2022 Winter Olympics. In 2023, he became a European champion in the four-man format.
Hall took up sports after getting into trouble at school. He played rugby and athletics and took up winter sports following his participation in a UK Sport talent identification scheme called Power to Podium while he was at university. He initially tried skeleton but later attended trials for the bobsleigh team. [2]
In November 2017, Hall was a member of the four-man team who won a bronze medal in the 2017-18 World Cup event in Park City. [3] At the 2018 Winter Olympics, Hall finished 17th in the four-man event and 12th in the two-man event. [4]
After Great Britain's bobsleigh squad failed to challenge for medals in the bobsleigh at the 2018 Winter Olympics, UK Sport ended it's funding for the sport. Hall chose to launch a crowd fundraiser in February 2019 to raise £6000 for racing equipment. [5]
In the 2019-20 World Cup, Hall finished in second place with Greg Cackett in the two-man race at Igls. This was the first time that a British bobsleigh team had won a medal in the two-man format in the history of the competition. [6] His joint fourth in the two-man World Championships in Whistler in 2019 was the best British result in the competition for over 50 years. [7]
In December 2022, Hall led Great Britain to gold in the four-man event at the World Cup meeting in Lake Placid. He had recorded 13 career podium finishes in World Cups but this was his first gold. [8] In January 2023, he also won a silver medal with Taylor Lawrence in the two-man event at Altenberg. [9] The following day, Hall's British team won a gold medal in the four-man event. [10] Later that month, Hall led Great Britain to their first ever European title in the four-man event. Racing alongside Arran Gulliver, Greg Cackett and Taylor Lawrence, the quartet beat Germany by 0.09 seconds in Altenberg. [11] At the 2023 World Championships in St Moritz, he piloted the British team to a silver medal which they jointly shared with Latvia. It was Great Britain's first medal in the four-man bobsleigh in a World Championships for 84 years. [12]
In January 2025, Hall helped Great Britain win two gold medals in the four-man at the World Cup meetings in Winterberg (the first occasion since 2012 that a German team had failed to win a World Cup event at the venue) [13] and St Moritz. [14] In February, Hall won a bronze medal in both the two-man [15] and four-man events in the World Cup meeting in Lillehammer. [16] In March, he led Great Britain to a bronze medal in the World Championships at Lake Placid in the four-man event. [17]
In January 2026, Hall won a bronze medal in the two-man event at the World Cup meeting in St Moritz. The event also doubled up as the European Championships. [18]
