Whistle/ Signal. this is the new part: "Blue 23 with a hold" (signalling hold). White ball endline (point to spot). THEN go report the foul to the table.
Is that so hard? It has been for me. I think it is from training over the summer where it was hard for me to get to the right spot to report. That became an overriding concern, and I neglected to focus on preliminary call. I got some feedback on that, but not as much.
Anyways... progress.

I know what you mean. Not many refs here do it, but the ones who do are the one who gets noticed by the board. I have been working with the youth leagues to improve on that.
I just take my time, I:
- Blow my whistle
- Call who made the foul
- Type of foul
- Shooting or Spot
- Go to table and report the same thing using the proper signals.
I have gotten a lot better on it, took me a few weeks though. Just keep trying and do what you are comfortable.
