UPDATE -

I posed the question to our state interpeter and got the following response:

GREAT question! I had to look up the actual wording used in Rule 4 to define kicking. The definition says that kicking the ball is intentionally STRIKING the ball with any part of the leg or foot. In the play as you described it, the player did not "strike" the ball but simply used his legs to gather or collect it. In my opinion, no violation occurred.
