If your school has found a good cleaning product that works, great — keep using it! If not, give Clubhouse a chance at bat. Buying low cost detergent(s) doesn’t solve the problem of stains.

Clubhouse “Uniform Cleaning System” is a supporter of the THSADA and designed specifically to answer that cleaning distress call which plagues sports teams. How do we remove those burdensome uniform STAINS: field dyes, red clay, blood, ground in dirt, sweat, odors, and hard to remove grass stain?

Please give us an opportunity to show you our solution: 877-223-4277.

I cannot begin to list the names of those involved but every large school district and section of the state was represented. These early day leaders have paved the way for an organization that is held in such high esteem as it is today.”

1971

First independent meeting of the THSADA is held at the La Mansion Hotel in San Antonio the week after the state basketball tournament. The main goals of the meeting were to improve the means of communication within schools and fill a much-needed role in athletic administration.

2018

Continued growth of the THSADA allows for the addition of an Assistant Executive Director. This new position is filled by Bob DeJonge, formerly Director of Athletics of the Keller ISD. After years in development, the Texas Athletic Administrators Certification curriculum is launched at State Conference. This athletic administrators’ curriculum comprised of 28 courses utilizes a faculty of current athletic administrators, industry professionals, UIL/TAPPS staff and school superintendents.

2019

Members of the inaugural TAAC graduating class are honored with certificates at their respective Region Meetings beginning in the fall. With online education available to complete certification, this number totaled 74 administrators by the end of the year.

A 1½-day workshop, Fall Forum is launched as an annual fall event to provide another educational opportunity for membership. Nearly 200 members attend Fall Forum at the Northside

ISD’s Farris Athletic Complex in San Antonio. Speakers included superintendents, representatives of the UIL, athletic administrators, sponsors, and industry leaders in athletic facilities.

Membership in the THSADA exceeds 1,000.

2020

The Covid-19 pandemic forces the association to postpone the State Conference in Waco from April to July, and finally to December. In October, after evaluating health and safety restrictions across the city of Waco and at the Waco Convention Center, the Board of Directors make the decision to shift the State Conference online.

Region Meetings also shifted to a virtual format, beginning in the spring.

The THSADA also kept its membership informed and inspired by launching one-day Spring, Summer and Fall Roundtables online; extensive panel discussions involving key athletic administrators and complemented by key UIL staff offering timely updates as it relates to sports planning and schedules.

Membership in the THSADA exceeds 1,200.

2021

Now in its 50th year, the THSADA is the professional and educational association for more than 1,200 secondary athletics administrators at more than 1,600 institutions throughout Texas. Members manage more than $530M in athletic budget considerations for 1M+ student-athletes.

The THSADA adds Spring Sponsor Showcase, a 1½-day workshop in March, and similar to Fall Forum, to its calendar.

The association will celebrate its 50th by returning its State Conference to the Austin area for the first time since 2005. The site for the four-day annual event will be Kalahari Resorts & Conventions in Round Rock, June 6-9.
