Nick and I met nearly 10 years ago while playing together in Harrisonburg, VA. What impressed me most about him then, was his passion for the game. Something that has only become stronger over the years. Its great to see Nick using the priceless knowledge and experience that he has, to teach others. His work ethic, both on and off the field, is some of the best I've seen. -Jesse Foppert, Major League Pitcher, #1 Prospect, San Francisco Giants.

Nick and I got to know each other as teammates in college and have been close since. Not only did we push each other on the field at Rice, but continue as friends to push and challenge each other off the field as well. That work ethic that Nick has translates into everything he does including challenging young players to be the best they can be. It's a pleasure to work with and see Nick develop young players so that they can achieve their goals and have the same success that he has enjoyed in his baseball career and off the field as well.

After my years of pitching professionally in the Big Leagues, I had the great privilege of working with Nick. He was entering his Senior season of high school baseball. It was such a pleasure to work with a young man, who was hungry to learn and work hard to become the best he could be. Nick has taken that same passion to become a great teacher and coach. I love what Nick is doing in working with young people to help them develop their skills. He is a great coach and a good man."

I had the opportunity to play with Nick at Rice University as a teammate of his. While at Rice, he and I pushed one another to strive for excellence. Nick's work ethic is unbelievable and he's the guy who pushed me not only on the field, but off the field in the weight room and training to become a better ball player. I watched Nick's career progress to the professional level where he has had many good years. Every off-season, Nick and I work out together to prepare for the following season. The work ethic Nick exudes is very valuable because he pushes us to become better players. We have even gone as far as catching each other off the mound in the bullpen to work off one another.

"Nick Martin's professional experience and great knowledge of pitching make him an outstanding teacher and coach. If you've got a strong work ethic, his pitching instruction and training methods will help you reach the next level faster."

"From my son's first session with Nick it was obvious to me that we'd found more than just a coach. Nick brings an impressive professional baseball career along with a profound understanding of pitching. My son has seen his technical skills improve as well as his overall confidence on the mound. Nick has been patient with him when he's struggled and has always instructed him positively. Best of all, my son looks forward to every session with Nick and considers him a good friend."
- Chris Garcia

"Nick is an awesome pitcher and coach! He's a lefty, like me, so that really helps him understand how I should be pitching. The thing I admire most about Nick is that he always teaches me new techniques and makes me feel like I can do anything as long as I work at it!"
- Noah Garcia, age 11
