Question: with the double base being used at 1st which side of the bag or either does F3 have to touch to make the out??

So far as I know, the 2002 changes did not change the existing rule regarding overthrows or missed throws. In this case, both the defense and the offense may use either base.
I don't know why the national staff would be confused. It clearly says that either player may use either base.
