Broadbell, the 2022 Commonwealth Games champion and Paris 2024 Olympic bronze medallist, recently relocated to the United States and is scheduled to work under a specialised programme tailored to his injury-related needs, according to a report cited from the Jamaica Observer.
The move would see the Jamaican hurdler work with Greene, who has been the University of Kentucky's Director of Track and Field and Cross Country and head coach since 2018. Kentucky's official athletics records confirm that Greene continues to lead the programme.
Broadbell has established himself among Jamaica's leading men's 110m hurdlers. At the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, he won bronze in 13.09 seconds, finishing behind American Grant Holloway and fellow American Daniel Roberts. World Athletics records also list his personal best at 12.94 seconds, set in Kingston in July 2023.
The 26-year-old previously trained under Reynaldo Walcott before returning to MVP Track Club, where he reunited with legendary Jamaican coach Stephen Francis in late 2024. Broadbell had initially made his breakthrough at MVP before moving to Walcott's programme.
His reported move to Kentucky therefore represents another significant change in his training environment as he continues his career at the highest level.
Greene brings extensive experience in sprint and hurdles development. The Bahamian-born coach has been at the helm of Kentucky's track and field programme since the 2018-19 season and has overseen numerous NCAA and SEC successes. Kentucky's 2026 team materials list Greene specifically as head coach for women's long sprints and hurdles, while he remains the overall track and field head coach.
Broadbell's decision to train in the United States also comes as he seeks to maintain his competitiveness after several seasons affected by injury interruptions. His record includes a Commonwealth Games gold medal, an Olympic bronze medal and multiple Diamond League victories, while his 12.94-second personal best ranks him among Jamaica's fastest-ever performers in the event.
The new training arrangement is expected to focus on Broadbell's individual physical requirements while helping him prepare for the next phase of his international career.
