Home Run Hug
U16 game ... Batter hits a home run ... as she approaches home plate, her teammates & male 1B coach wait for her. Just before the BR enters the 3B batters box, the 1B coach jumps forward, picks her up in a bear hug (awkward), and carries her across home plate. Your call?

Position yourself to see the touch, remind all nearby teammates that she needs to be seen touching the plate.

While I agree with the "no call" here (assuming she touched the base or if she missed it there was no appeal)...
But what, then, do you do when the opposing coach comes out to ask you why we didn't call an out for the coach assisting their player?
