In 9-12 YO LL: runners can leave when the ball is hit or reaches the batter, not the catcher's mitt.
No rules against a "rolling start" as long as a foot is in contact with bag when F1 hits the rubber and F2 is ready. Backing up here and lifting a foot from the base would result in a dropped hankie
