Hey there! I'm Nicholas Valencia otherwise known as Coach Nick. I have college level baseball experience as both a player and a coach. I believe that every baseball player learns differently. The lessons and drills I provide are tailored towards YOUR unique goals and needs. No two players I coach will ever have the same exact routine, which is what makes private coaching so special. Our relationship will be symbiotic and I will guide you on the path to success. Looking forward to working with you!

Hi, I’m Coach James Kemp—a recent NCAA Division I baseball player and team captain at Iona University. I’m coming off my final collegiate season where I broke the Iona all-time RBI record, finishing my career as one of the most productive hitters in program history. Career Highlights: • Iona University All-Time RBI Record Holder – 2025 • Team Captain – 2024–2025 • All-MAAC First Team – 1st Baseman – 2025 • MAAC Player of the Week – March & May 2025 • MAAC All-Academic Team – 2020–2023 • Dean’s List – Iona University After years of competing at the highest level, I’m excited to pass on the knowledge, discipline, and mindset it takes to perform under pressure. Whether I’m working with young kids learning the basics or teenagers looking to level up, I bring intensity, patience, and structure to every session. My lessons focus on strong fundamentals, confident at-bats, defensive footwork, and real-time feedback. Most importantly, I create a positive, focused environment where players can grow, compete, and enjoy the game. Let’s get to work—I'll bring the experience, you bring the hustle.
