Title: Kickoff start
Post by: bk99 on September 13, 2020, 03:13:03 pm

Are the players allowed a running start or do they have to stay until the ball is kicked?

They are allowed to be no more then 5 yards back from the kickoff spot and have to be in front of the line. But yes they can get a running start as long as there behind the line of scrimmage before the kick
