if a kickoff is touched by receing team before the ball travels 10 yds can kicling team recover the ball?
-
Yes. Once the receiving team touches the ball, it will be 1st down for whichever team is in possession at the end of the down.

A good way for the covering wings is to remind themselves that if the free kick doesn't travel 10 yards, IT IS JUST LIKE A PUNT (excepting going OOB untouched by R). Both wings should have their beanbags ready to mark 1st touching.
