The advance team was hard to get into, and “Martin was still able to be successful in making the squat,” his uncle added. Martin practiced a lot over the winter in the Columbia Lake Recreation Centre (CLRC). Martin and Nicholas said the facility was excellent, and the equipment was provided completely.

“He has worked hard and dedicated himself since winter to make the team. He took advantage of the facility to train,” CLRC added. “I’m a very proud Uncle. We’re all proud of him,” Nicholas said happily. When asked about Martin’s time and favourite memory in NAIG, he said: “It was really fun. I really liked the experience; it was really great…. I like it when I was getting my first good hit.”

He also mentioned being eligible for the next advanced team, the U19 team player, in 2027. He’s looking forward to it. “Watching him mature into a young man and the success that he’s already found is incredible. He has nothing but a bright future ahead of him,” Nicholas added. “I just want to be the best ballplayer that I could be,” Martin mentioned when asked about his goals in the future. In terms of Martin’s future, he also has a lot of games ahead of him in Calgary and California later this year.

“I want to thank all the people that helped me with their help and support,” Martin said.
