At the varsity level you will blow your whistle to tell a kid to get his mouthpiece in? I will yell at them to try to get them to, but if they do not hear me and are not going to get it done and the snap is imminent, we will have a foul. Lower level is one thing, varsity is another.

Are you kidding me? First, my point was I do not let the free kick start if I can prevent someone from fouling. For example, I don't let them start without eleven on the field. I make sure they line up onsides and I also make sure that they have their mouthpieces in and I don't let a kick kick off of the toe of another player. If I do that then, hopefully, they can play football.

If you are talking about on a free kick, I agree. I thought your mouthpiece discussion was about on a normal scrimmage play after the RFP has been blown.

Food for thought and discussion. Is this an illegal kick if the holder has the ball on his toe and a place kicker kicks the ball? Or is the holder down for having control of the ball with his knee on the ground and the kicker not allowed to legally kick the ball in this situation? Any thoughts?
