Whoever called the police on a kid for being too good at soccer is a menace. Straight to therapy is the most generous response.

🤦‍♂️

In a better world the cops would look at the situation, telll the kid they heard how good he was all the way down at the station, then shake his hand. And give whoever called a citation for wasting police time.

But we are apparently in ACAB world.

There's more to the story. Some follow-ups have been posted in other posts.

It was a super low-level beginner rec league. The boy was indeed talented and trained by his father well past the intro to soccer rec league. None of the other kids who had never played could get any time with the ball. He needed to join an older rec league or, more likely, an actual club that could work with his skill.

The father made a bunch of videos, being loud and boisterous while his kid wiped the field with the completely green players, until the parents of all the other children complained and the rec business asked him to leave. He used the videos and viral attention to tag professionals and schools to get his kid's name out there. Once the cops asked him to leave, he complied and they gave him a full refund.

He got his 15m of fame and viral videos and the attention of a bunch of schools and his money back, the other kids of the field got their chance to actually play fairly back.

No harm, no foul. Story should have been over before it began.
