Roc Nation reportedly to send Nevada Pierre to Spain for soccer

The trip is intended to provide soccer lessons with world class coaches.

The reported commitment follows a viral incident on October 24, 2026, at Martin Luther King Jr. Park in Winter Park, Florida, where police were called to a youth league game. Nevada, who plays in an i9 Sports league, was playing against children roughly age 5. While videos show the preschooler dominating the game and scoring with ease, the event ended in a dispute that led to police intervention. Reports indicate Nevada scored 10 goals during the match, and other parents complained he held possession too long and would not pass to other children.

Dispute Over Youth Game

A league director called 911 to report that Nevada’s parents, Martasia Griffin and Don Pierre, were “unruly,” “disruptive,” and “aggressive.” According to bodycam footage and reports, the director claimed one parent was livestreaming and calling him names. The director also told officers that while Nevada was “very advanced” and scoring many goals, he had been “pushing the kids.” According to TMZ, the director told the dispatcher, “I want her to be gone,” and asked for officers to arrive quickly because the family was about to leave. The director claimed the parents were “following” him around the park and “calling me names in front of the whole bunch of people here.” He offered the parents a full refund if they agreed to leave.

The family disputes these claims. Don Pierre stated publicly that police were called because his son was “too good” and held the ball too long. Martasia Griffin told officers the adults were “mad at my son because he actually plays soccer” and later shared an unedited video of the game to challenge the allegations of pushing. Griffin, who says her son began dribbling at 10 months old, described the episode as traumatizing. She noted that while Nevada still wants to play, he does not want to return to that specific field.

Winter Park Police classified the incident as a civil matter. No one was arrested, trespassed, or forced to leave the public park; the family departed on their own. Police stated the call concerned a parent disturbance rather than the child’s talent.

Donors and Academies Offer Nevada New Opportunities

Following the incident, support for Nevada has increased. A GoFundMe campaign for training and opportunities has raised between $10,000 and $42,000. Former U.S. men’s national team player Eddie Johnson has also offered Nevada a spot in his Orlando academy starting in January.

Roc Nation has shown support via a post, and the reported trip to Spain aligns with the family’s previous discussions about relocating there so Nevada could “really immerse himself into the sport.”

Unconfirmed Details

While Roc Nation has posted support for the child on social media, the company has not formally announced the plan to send the family to Spain. The specific details of the December trip remain unconfirmed by the company and rely on source reporting. The league also denied that director Thomas Hayes was present during the game, despite accusations that he placed the 911 call.
