Introducing the new voice of the North Stars: Marty Martinson
Marty Martinson is the new voice of the Battlefords North Stars.
Originally from Regina, Martinson is a graduate of Western Academy Broadcasting College in Saskatoon. Martinson was the play-by-play man for the OCN Blizzard of the MJHL last season, and he’s excited to continue his broadcasting career in the SJHL with the Battlefords North Stars.
“I’m really looking forward to getting the season underway with the North Stars,” Martinson said. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue to pursue my passion in a market where the fans take such pride in their team.”
When asked about his style of play-by-play announcing, Martinson, a fan of NHL hockey, said he likes to draw comparisons between junior-aged players and their NHL counterparts, as a method of painting a picture and making the game exciting for every listener.
