The Hebrew word for to kick is לִבְעוֹט listen and repeat, a simple verb of the root ב.ע.ט (b.a.t). It’s used with the preposition -ּב listen and repeat, so that, in Hebrew, one kicks “at” something.
 
For example:
 
הַשַּׂחְקָן בָּעַט בַּכַּדּוּר.
The player kicked (at) the ball.
 
Likewise, a kick is a בְּעִיטָה listen and repeat.
 
For example:
 
לִפְעָמִים אֲנִי חוֹטֵף בְּעִיטוֹת בַּבְּרֵכָה הַקְּהִלָּתִית.
Sometimes I get kicked (receive kicks) in the community pool.
