USSF rules are very clear that any violation of how a kick-off is taken, other than a double touch, results in a retake of the kick-off.
However, NFHS rules simply list the provisions to be met during a kick-off and then have only one penalty listed after article 4 (the double touch) which is an indirect free kick for the non-offending team.
What is the correct understanding of this situation under NFHS rules?
Team A kicking off, A2 runs five yards onto the opponents side of half field before the ball is kicked. What is the correct penalty? If it is a rekick where does it say that in the NFHS book?
