Prince Harry is very competitive.

The young royal showed off his athletic side after he opted to take part in a wheelchair rugby exhibition at the Invictus Games on Friday, and while it was all for a good cause, Harry didn't hold back one bit.

In fact, Prince William's younger bro reportedly found himself "sin banned" during part of the game. Sin banned?!

Basically, the 29-year-old was benched for being a little too aggressive and fouling another player, which inspired the crowd to innocently taunt Harry as he left the game.

Olympic heptathlete Denise Lewis played against Harry and explained why he was sent away.

"It was very competitive, no one wanted to lose. Prince Harry ended up in the sin bin for a foul on me, that was the sort of competition there was," she told reporters. "He just rammed me, he just tried to take me out. I don't know the rules, but I know it was a foul."

His team captain, Jason Robinson, said after the game, "Somebody had to be sin binned. It was either him or Mike Tindall! Whatever Harry does, he goes at it 100 percent."

Harry's team, which included his cousin Zara Tindall, won against a team withTindall's husband Mike and British Olympian Dame Kelly Holmes. Around 400 competitors from 13 countries are taking part in the inaugural games, which end on Sunday.
