false - a kick off is considered a free kick and it must move forward

For purposes related to players... As stated under Law 13.1 Free Kicks in "Advice To Referees" ...A free kick may be taken in any direction. (This does not apply to penalty kicks. See Law 14) This forum is not an exam. I think we all know kick offs move forward. That's a no brainer.

I realize this forum is not an exam.. However, I am just putting up one of the "debateable" questions. Does it consider this to be any free kick? Is the kick-off included in the "free kick"

Yes.... On kick off, the ball must move forward and on a PK, the ball must move forward. A mere touch by a player can constitute the ball moving forward. (Years ago, the ball had to move the circumference of the ball)
IFK (Indirect Free Kick) has to be touched twice by any player before a goal is allowed. Again, the ball has to be merely tapped on initial touch. The ref's arm held up over his head indicates an IFK. No arm over the head, FK. (Free Kick)
