"John Matich has been the answer to all our family's questions regarding our son's (Travis Golia) develpoment as a kicker and the recruiting process. He has helped Travis become a college level kicker and prepared him well for numerous college recruiting camps. Numerous college coaches have commented on how fundementally sound Travis is in his mechanics and that it is obvious someone very good has taught him to kick. However, what really separates John from others is his responsiveness and for being such an accurate source of information to the many questions our family has regarding the recruiting process. On and off the field, John has under-promised and over delivered. I would recommend John to any kicking or punting prospect and his family. Many other kicking coaches have asked us to work with Travis and we have, thankfully, stayed loyal to John and I would advise everyone else to get John on their team." David Golia, Parent of Travis Golia, La Jolla Country Day HS
