Free Kick Outline By Scott Taylor III. FREE KICKS A.) Kickoff - A Placekick or Drop Kick may be used. - CANNOT score a field goal. B.) Following a Safety - A Placekick, Drop Kick, or Punt may be used. - CANNOT score a field goal. C.) Following a Fair Catch or an Awarded Fair Catch - A Placekick or Drop Kick may be used. - The only Free Kick that can score a field goal. D.) Fundamentals - The ball is marked ready-for-play within one minute after the down which precedes a Free Kick has ended. - Whenever K recovers a Free Kick, the ball is immediately dead. - A Free Kick must touch the ground and break the plane of R's restraining line for K to legally recover and retain possession. These two requirements may occur in either order. E.) First Touching - Occurs in the neutral zone when K may not legally retain possession and touches the ball before R. - Is canceled if R touches the ball and then fouls, or if any penalty is accepted. F.) Fouls - Encroachment is a Dead Ball Foul. - A Free Kick that goes out-of-bounds untouched by R is a foul. - Illegally Blocking the Kicker or Holder. - Kick Catch Interference. During any free kick in flight, K shall not touch the ball or R, nor obstruct R's path to the ball. G.) R may signal and make a Fair Catch during a Free Kick between K's free kick line and R's goal line. 8/04 |
