Police officers reportedly escorted a Black three-year-old soccer player and his family from a field in Winter Park, Florida, after parents of opposing players complained that he was dominating the game.
The toddler, identified as Nevada, was playing in an i9 Sports youth soccer league against children aged five when the incident occurred.
According to his family, the league removed him from the programme after repeated complaints that his performance made matches unfair.
The family shared the incident on their TikTok account, Nevadaney10, alleging that they received a trespass notice before police escorted them from the field in front of other children.
“They really called the police on a 3-year-old because he had the ball too much,” Nevada’s father said in the video.
Some parents reportedly accused the toddler of trying to “put on a show”, while his mother defended him, saying he was simply playing soccer.
“Those grown-ups huddled up talking about my son… but he ain’t doing nothing but playing soccer,” she said.
