Base Awards?

[PeteBooth]

Why not use the authoritative opinion expressed elsewhere on other interference plays, such as base coachers? It's deemed that when a base coach kicks a ball it is always ruled as "intentional" regardless of actual intent. [/B][/QUOTE]

Hayes thanks - you know one thing suddenly occured to me in reading all these threads that I didn't think of before - How does one un-intentionally "kick" a ball. When someone kicks - they are actually performing an act.

In the play described F2 blocking ball with body and then the ball ricochetting out in front of runner. I can vision the runner stepping on the ball accidently or the ball hitting B1's foot , but actually kicking the ball would require some sort of act on the part of B1.

I'm sure there is probably 1 way or another that the ball could be accidentally kicked, but again in general kicking something requires an action.
