I had to look up the double-first base suggestion. In NH, we use the double-base.

1.2.1 Note "By state association adoption, a double first base is permitted."

I did a relocated game that was played on a college field, which of course did not have a double base. One of the coaches moaned and whined and carried on about legal liabilities.

We played the game (without anybody being killed at 1B) and then reported it to our higher ups.

Give the wording, and unless there is something different in NH amended rules, the double-base is "permitted", not required.

I'll have to check further.
