A soccer league chief claimed that a three-year-old prodigy was ‘aggressive’ against his rivals after he frantically urged police to have the toddler’s ‘unruly’ and ‘disruptive’ parents removed from a youth game in an explosive dispute.
In a video that went viral earlier on Monday morning, the father of the toddler – who boasts over 400,000 followers on TikTok – alleged that other players’ parents complained because he wasn’t passing to his teammates during the recent match.
However, Jul Henry, the director of the youth league who called 911 over the ‘disruptive’ parents, claimed that Nevada had been ‘aggressive’ on the field in police bodycam footage obtained by The Daily Mail.
In the footage from the responding officers, the league organizer could be seen claiming that Nevada’s parents were being ‘disruptive’ after the soccer starlet was pulled from the game.
While Henry acknowledged that Nevada was a talented player, he alleged that the toddler had been too ‘aggressive,’ claiming that he had pushed other players.

He informed the officers that he would be willing to offer the family a refund for their league payments but demanded that they leave the park.
However, Nevada’s parents furiously disputed that version of events, informing the responding officers that they were confused why they were being asked to leave.
They explained that they paid $300 for their son to play and claimed that they were simply cheering him on.
‘He’s been doing weird things to my son because my son actually plays soccer,’ the mother told officers, referring to the director. ‘They’re mad at my son because he actually plays soccer. So I’m confused and a little baffled because I signed my son up for soccer.
‘They’re literally kicking him out of this place because he’s good at soccer.’
She also insisted that her son was not being aggressive at all, claiming that his teammates failed to pick up the ball when he would pass to them.
‘What is the real issue? They have an issue with a three-year-old, because me and him haven’t done anything,’ she added, gesturing to the toddler’s father. ‘We stand on the other side. We don’t ever stand with the other parents, so we’re not getting into it with other parents.’
The family eventually exited the park with the officers as the mother demanded paperwork proof that the league would reimburse them.

Dispatch audio revealed that Henry had earlier complained about the youngster’s mother’s behavior as he desperately urged police to send officers to the scene.
He could be heard alleging that the woman was following him around, calling him names and filming him for social media, in the audio heard by The Daily Mail.
‘I have an unruly parent here, calling me names and having me on Instagram or whatever and wanting me to look bad,’ he said.
He continued: ‘There’s a parent here who is really, really disruptive. Like following me around and calling me names. I want her gone.’
Henry continued to frantically request that officers arrive at the scene quickly as possible as the family were about to leave the park.
‘Can you have someone quickly get here? Because they’re about to leave here in 10 minutes,’ he said. ‘This needs to be like a rush.’
‘I just want her off the property, please, immediately,’ he continued.
When officers arrived at the scene, they were requested by the director to communicate with the family as he ‘did not want to further a disturbance,’ according to a news release from the Winter Park Police Department.

Police stated that the family of the toddler were ‘cooperative’ throughout the process and told officers that the game was over and that they were leaving.
They advised the parents that any dispute over a refund regarding league fees would be a civil matter. No arrests were made and nobody was forced to leave the park by police.
In footage from the game, Nevada could be seen dominating the i9 Sports competition. As cops arrived his father could be heard in the social media video saying: ‘They called the police on a three-year-old because he is too good.
‘They called the police on a 3-year-old because he has the ball for too long. And nobody else can get the ball. So, they called the police on him.’
The boy’s family later returned to social media in a follow-up post to claim that the soccer starlet had been kicked out of the league following the remarkable ordeal.
They shared a screenshot of an alleged email from i9 Sports which seemingly confirmed that a refund for the ‘2026 Fall League’ had been processed.
The youth sports organization at the center of the controversy also released a formal statement as public backlash mounts over the incident.
In comment provided to The Daily Mail, i9 Sports said: ‘We are aware of concerns being shared regarding an incident at a local i9 Sports program, and we take them very seriously.

‘The respectful treatment and well-being of every child and family matter deeply to us. We have reached out to the family and have begun a review that includes speaking with those involved.
‘While we work to understand the circumstances, we will not speculate or share unverified information. We appreciate everyone who has brought their concerns to our attention.’
The viral incident sparked backlash on social media on Monday with popular children’s influencer Ms Rachel sharing a post about it to her six million followers.
On Instagram, she wrote: ‘I’m LIVID! Please sports people give him all the experiences and love. @nevadaney10 We’d love to have him on our show to share his amazing skills. I need sports people to show up for him.’
