Bideau to coach English in 2015

Mark English has confirmed that Nic Bideau will be his new coach as well as his agent next season.

European bronze medallist English was named — as expected — athlete of the year at the National Athletics Awards yesterday at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Santry, and revealed the Australian’s increased role.

“I’m delighted to confirm Nic as my coach,” said English, following the awards where he also won Track & Field athlete of the year and was part of the Team Performance of the year as a member of the men’s 4x400m record-breaking team.
