There is a mantra I used as a line judge and I quote to my wingmen all the time on kickoff, "It must go 10-yards and it must touch the ground" to signify what must happen for K to recover. In this situation K cannot recover because ...
Here is one that taught me that whenever you are on the neutral zone for a free kick be prepared with beanbag in hand.
K's kicker shanks the ball. The ball strikes an R lineman in the helmet and goes out of bounds. My WH was furious that a flag was not thrown as I held the spot. I waved him over and described the play. He agreed, first and ten for R where the ball went out of bounds.
