About Taylor Sports Academy in Temple, TX

Where Athletic Training Meets Faith and Mentorship in Temple

Taylor Sports Academy (TSA) is a premier training facility serving youth and adults throughout Central Texas. The Academy is dedicated to developing the total individual

mentally, physically, and emotionally.



Founded by Ramonce Taylor, TSA was created with a heartfelt mission to positively impact the lives of young people in the community that shaped him. The Academy focuses on education, citizenship, leadership, and integrity while enhancing athletic ability through elite personal and group training programs.


In addition to athletic development, Taylor Sports Academy also offers therapeutic behavioral services, providing structured support and mentorship to help youth develop discipline, emotional control, decision-making skills, and positive life habits. TSA is committed to building strong athletes and even stronger individuals.

A 2005 NCAA Division I Football National Champion with the University of Texas Longhorns and a proud Belton High School alumnus, Ramonce Taylor established Taylor Sports Academy as a way to give back to Central Texas.



Widely regarded as one of the most talented athletes to come out of Bell County, Ramonce once had aspirations of playing in the NFL. Although off-the-field challenges prevented him from reaching that goal, he turned life lessons into purpose — dedicating himself to mentoring and coaching the next generation.


In 2009, Ramonce began coaching youth and middle school football at All Saints Episcopal School in Fort Worth, Texas. In his first season, he led his 5th and 6th grade team to a league championship. After advancing to the junior high level, his teams went undefeated throughout their middle school careers. Of the athletes he personally mentored, several signed Division I football scholarships and a few made NFL roster.


In 2014, Ramonce relocated to the Austin area to serve as the Varsity Wide Receivers Coach at St. Andrew’s Episcopal School under Heisman Trophy winner Ty Detmer. During his first year, the team finished with a 9–1 record — the best season in school history. From 2015 to 2017, he expanded his coaching impact by leading both boys and girls varsity track. Under his leadership, the girls team won two track meets for the first time in school history, and he coached the top female triple and long jumper in the conference.


From 2020 to 2025, Ramonce continued building his coaching legacy at Marlin High School, where he served as Assistant Offensive Coordinator, Assistant Basketball Coach, and Head Track Coach. During his tenure, he helped lead programs to multiple championships in football, basketball, and track, while also sending several kids DIV. 1 to continue their athletic career prior to fully launching Taylor Sports Academy.


After years of reaching milestones and changing countless lives within school athletic programs, Ramonce made the decision to focus entirely on TSA. His mission is clear: to teach young people that while sports can open doors, true success is built on character, discipline, accountability, and leadership.


Through Taylor Sports Academy, Ramonce Taylor is committed to developing champions in sports — and leaders in life.

Founded by a Former Longhorn Connected to Central Texas

Ramonce Taylor Sr. entered the NFL draft a year early after a standout college career, but his true calling came when he felt led by God to invest in the next generation. Taylor Sports Academy was created to support young athletes through the same discipline and work ethic that fueled his success, combined with the kind of guidance he wished he'd had earlier in his journey.


Temple's close-knit athletic community and Central Texas pride set the stage for a training environment where every athlete—whether new to the game or training for the next level—receives individualized attention. From the fields of Killeen to the neighborhoods of Harker Heights and Belton, we serve families who value accountability, structure, and results.
