What Causes Dizziness In A Child?

My 11 year old son has been lightheaded and dizzy for a couple of hours. Has had some ringing in his ears. He played several hours of competitive soccer over the weekend in temperatures of 85-95 degrees. Body temp is normal. What might this be? He s nervous which makes us nervous because that s not normally like him.
