A block is the act of legally stopping a defender from getting to the player in possession of the ball.
Therefore if there is not a player in possession of the ball no one can be technically blocked.

The above answer is wrong. A player may not change his position on the field to block a goalie's punt. It is officially delaying the restart of play and should be "rewarded" with a yellow card and a free kick for the defending team. The key is where the player was when the ball was collected by the keeper and where the player is when the ball is punted.
The above implies that a player may run across the field and dive into the play, like would be done in American football. That should result in a yellow card caution and free kick.

Can the defence block the punt in high school football rule?
a punt may be blocked by the kicking team without penalty unless there is some other illegal act involved. As long as the kicked ball is touched prior to the blocker contacting the punter the contact is ignored. For exanmple If the punt blocker were to block the punt and then make helmet to helmet contact with the punter there would be a penalty for the illegal helmet contact but not the blocking of the punt.

Is a football punt supposed to spiral?
The punter has a choice of what kind of punt they will employ. The most common type, the drop punt, sends the ball end over end and is both easy to kick and accurate. The spiral punt sends the ball in a spiral, making it more aerodynamic. The ball travels further, but is harder to do and much less accurate; not to mention the fact that it makes it easier for the return man to catch. The third type of punt is the soccer-style punt, which is essentially a drop punt but instead of straight-forward, the punter is running at an angle to his kicking foot side and kicks the ball across his body. I punt myself, and I really use all 3 different types of punts for different situations. If I'm at my own 20, i will spiral punt for distance. If I'm at my opponents 30, I will drop punt for accuracy. Finally, if I'm rushed and forced to leave the pocket, I will do soccer style just to get a punt off at all.
