Hey Ljudge, you say there is nothing illegal about this on free kick plays. However, if I undertand the original post correctly it is a bunch of players in a "huddle" during the live ball play. If the ball is being handed around in there or even from one player to another everything is fine on a scrimmage down as long as all this occurs behind LOS. However on upon receiving a free kick R may only hand off backwards. So if the ball is handed forward inside this "huddle" it would be an illegal forward handoff.
