Jordan and Tyler played for Thad at another facility and when Thad left we followed him to his new endeavor, Texas Heat Athletics. Thad is very passionate about the game, and his players. He emphasizes proper exercise and stretching for his players to prevent injuries. Thad is very diligent in working on mechanics and has honed Jordan and Tyler's hitting skills and confidence. Thad organizes venues to showcase his players talents. The 18U team played at multiple College and University Campuses this fall and the younger team faced good competition in the Austin and Houston areas. Thad's previous experience at the collegiate and professional levels provides true insight to the game of baseball as well as the scouting and recruiting processes.

Our son, Jason Staff, played summer baseball on the Texas Heat 18u team this past summer. We were truly impressed with the instruction and training he received from Thad. We are so thankful that Jason was able to play for Thad and feel it has helped him tremendously this season in high school. Jason also took private lessons from Thad in pitching and hitting and we definitely see the improvement. I can also see that he has more confidence at the plate and pitching. My husband has also been telling others about the hitting lessons and how they helped our son, trying to encourage some of our other friend's to take their sons to Thad to get their timing, swings and other hitting techniques improved. It definitely was well worth the time and money that we invested and Jason is already looking forward to playing again for Thad this summer. He is a Junior in high school and he really wants to play college baseball. With Thad's instruction and expertise, we hope that Jason will accomplish this goal. Thad's dedication, caring and experiences at the professional level carry over into his practices and games and we are thankful that Jason has been able to be a part of this team.
