Lamin Deen (born 17 June 1981) is a British bobsleigh pilot and Grenadier Guardsman.[1] He qualified for the 2014 Winter Olympics in both the 2-man (in which he raced with John Baines) and 4-man disciplines.[3]

Deen was born in London into a family which originally hailed from Sierra Leone. He moved to Manchester at the age of nine.[2] He grew up in the city's Moss Side and Withington areas and was a pupil at Burnage High School before joining the Grenadier Guards, serving in Northern Ireland, Bosnia and Kosovo.[2] He represented the British Army in athletics, boxing and basketball before competing in bobsleigh.[4]

Deen scored a new personal best finish in the Bobsleigh World Cup in January 2014 when he (along with Stuart Benson, Bruce Tasker and Joel Fearon)[3] finished in 11th place in the four-man event at a meeting held at the Igls track.[2] Deen finished 19th in the four man event at the 2014 Winter Olympics[5] and 23rd in the two man competition.[6]

Deen enjoyed a strong start to the 2014-15 season, scoring a third and a first place in the opening two four man races of the Americas Cup at the Park City track[7] and winning another race at the following meeting at the Calgary track.[8] At the 2015 FIBT World Championships, Deen led crews to fifth place in the four-man event,[9] 14th in the two-man event[10] and eighth along with the rest of the British squad in the team event.[11]
