A Texas youth football team has been booted from their league in the middle of the playoffs season for 'being too good'.

The Flower Mound Rebels, a team of seven and eight-year-olds, won seven games during their season with a combined score of 199-6. 

The Rebels asked the Keller Youth Association to join its leage after the pandemic made it difficult to field a team.

But, they were deemed too good to play by the association and were ultimately kicked out of the upcoming playoffs because they were as good as a select level team instead of a peewee team - despite many of the players never having played before.

'This is the Keller league, not the Flower Mound league,' Rhett Taylor, the vice president of the association, told KXAS-TV. 

'In my mind, they've dominated our league. My team got one first down all game. And my team is good.

Ragan Montero, the Rebels coach, was angered over the decision as she felt it was to benefit Taylor.

'He's a sore loser. That's all it comes down to,' Montero told the network. 'He's changing the rules so it benefits him.'

Taylor, a father and coach, credited the team's dominance after his team lost to the Rebels 33-0. 

'They are too good. I fully admit it, absolutely. They are a select-level team. They are too good for a rec-level team.'

The team's 8-year-old center Greyson Tanner, who is new to football, said he felt the team deserved to be in the playoffs and finish their season

Montero, however, is not flattered by the opposing coach's 'praise' and said that less than half of the kids on her team have played football before this year's season.

'I don't think we can be too good. He wants to play with us, but he doesn't want us to be good,' he told KXAS-TV.

'I'm not really sure what that teaches the kids.
