I am a varsity high school football coach in Californai with a strange question.

We will be playing a team this year who does something very odd and I want to make sure I'm clear on the rules.

This team does not punt in the traditional sense. Every time it's fourth down, they line up and kick a field goal. Doesn't matter if they're on their own five yard line. They have a center, six lineman, two wings, a holder and a kicker. They snap it, set it and the kid kicks it as far as he can.

So, my questions are:

1) Can they legally use a tee?
2) What is the roughing rule regarding holder and or kicker?
3) What is the status of the ball - I assume if we leave it alone, it's a dead ball, but can we try and return it?
4) If we don't touch it and it doesn't go into the end zone, shouldn't we get it where the ball was kicked from or is this an NFL only rule?

Thanks for your help
