Bobby Martin was born on November 3, 1987, with a condition deemed by medical experts was the worse case of "Caudal Regression Syndrome" they had ever seen or heard of, leaving him with no legs.
Despite his condition and using no prosthetics, Bobby went on to receive critical acclaim nationally for his accomplishments on the high school football playing field. Bobby’s story transcends America’s most popular sport. It is about his desire and perseverance to overcome obstacles, and achieve what few thought was physically possible.
At the age of 2, Bobby’s father left him to be raised by his mother, Gloria in a tiny, one story home in the inner city of Dayton, Ohio. Things were tough, but Bobby received much love and support from his mother and two older brothers.
Born without legs, Martin -- a 3-foot-1-inch, 117-pound high school football player -- quickly uses his hands to propel himself between a flag-toting honor guard lining the 50-yard line. The coronation is sweet. The new king stands tall. Martin is crowned, and his green-and-yellow No. 99 Cougars jersey is draped with a red cape that flutters in the wind, Superman-like. It was specially tailored by Sharon Murphy, his consumer science instructor at Colonel White High School. Even though she was ill, Murphy was there, caught up in Bobbymania.
Martin, plays on special teams and is a backup nose tackle who sees limited playing time. But when he does, he fearlessly propels himself with gloved hands, his torso inches above the turf. He's agile and has tremendous arm strength. He makes cobra-like tackles and is the last defense on kickoff returns.
