Well, hello there, friend! Let's paint a happy little picture with words. In the sentence "I gave the team a trophy," the word "team" is actually the direct object, not the indirect object. The indirect object in this sentence would be "a trophy," as it is the recipient of the action. Keep on painting those language landscapes, my friend!
direct object (team) ---- indirect object
indirect object
A compound indirect object is more than one indirect object. "We gave Martha and Bob many presents." ("presents" is the direct object, "Martha and Bob" is the compound indirect object)
direct object
Difficult is an adjective, so no, it cannot be an indirect object. Indirect objects are nouns or pronouns that receive the direct object.
The sentence has two direct objects. direct object - the game indirect object - your team
In the sentence "The coach gave the team a few words of encouragement," the indirect object is "the team." This is because the team is the recipient of the direct object "a few words of encouragement," which is what the coach is giving. The indirect object typically answers the question "to whom" or "for whom" the action is done.
direct object (team) ---- indirect object
In the sentence "Jana told Tom he should try out for the tennis team," the indirect object is "Tom." The indirect object receives the action of the verb "told," indicating to whom Jana is speaking or giving the information.

There is no indirect object; the direct object is 'it' (immediately is an adverb modifying the verb spent).
"You" can be either a direct or indirect object: It is a direct object in "I want to kiss you." It is an indirect object in "Henry is going to give you the tickets."
A compound indirect object is more than one indirect object. "We gave Martha and Bob many presents." ("presents" is the direct object, "Martha and Bob" is the compound indirect object)
The direct object is "you"; the indirect object (I believe) is "this".
Yes. In fact, a sentence must have a direct object in order to have an indirect object. (Note, however, that some consider the subject of a sentence in the passive voice to be an "implicit" indirect object, because it the sentence is changed to the active voice, the subject in the passive voice will often become an indirect object in the active voice.)
An indirect object is always a noun (or an equivalent phrase). I gave the dog a bone -- "the dog" is the indirect object.
