The eight-year-old was roughly tackled by security at Twickenham stadium in London on Saturday after he leapt over the barrier to join the New Zealand team in a victory lap of the pitch after they beat Australia to win the Rugby World Cup.
Following the incident, Williams gave Lines his medal because he wanted to make sure that the boy's memory of the game was a positive one, Sky news said.
"If it was my little brother or a cousin, I would have given that security guard a hiding. This will be a night he remembers, hopefully," Williams said.

Williams expressed concern for the safety of the young boy when up against a large security guard.
"He was only eight and the other fella was a full-on man, so it looked like he would break his ribs or something," the player told ITV News.
