For an onside kick the kicking team kicks off on their own 30 yard line and needs 10 yards to recover the kick to avoid an illegal touching penalty inside those 10 yards. Now when a team gets penalized for illegal touching, it is a 5 yard penalty thus forcing them to kick from the 25 yard line. Now in this situation the kicking team do they have to recover the ball still 10 yards away now on the 35, or do they still have to recover the ball starting at the 40, now 15 yards away? Thanks. This is a dispute between me and my friends.
