 To address your comment, our city league has a local rule that states any fielder may cover home plate.

 Didn't say anything about it being legal or not.
 
There are a lot of umpires who just outright refuse to work co-rec ball for two reasons:
 
1. Changing the ball. International play uses the 12" ball ONLY.  To the best of my knowledge, most places simply use a 12" ball ONLY for this game.
 
2. The men not allowing the women to play their positions. Too many dicks "showing off" for their girlfriends/wives.
