There is no requirement for K to be within the 9-yard marks after the RFP for a free kick. In practice, the RFP will not be given until K is on the field and on their side of the ball.
6-1-3 After the ball is marked ready for play and until it is kicked, no player, other than the kicker and the holder for a place kick may be beyond his free-kick line.
