An athlete who allegedly brutalized a teenager is welcome on center stage at a show for kids on Nickelodeon.

The “Kids’ Choice Sports” awards show will open with a celebration of the World Cup champion US women’s soccer team. Carli Lloyd, Alex Morgan and Hope Solo are among the players set to appear, the network said Wednesday.

Solo was arrested last year in Washington following a domestic violence incident in which she was accused of bashing her 17-year-old nephew’s head into a cement floor and verbally assaulting police officers.

Other athletes taking part in the 90-minute show include Derek Jeter, Lindsey Vonn and Mo’ne Davis, the channel said.

The awards, hosted by Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, invited youngsters to vote on which teams and players will get to claim an orange blimp trophy. Music and competition are part of the show’s mix.

The show airs at 8 p.m. Eastern on Thursday.
