sometimes i forget that this forum is "outside of my state" so, the OP might choose to disregard that part of my post, depending on how his state handles that sort of stuff.
also, i didn't say longer....i said thorough.

I'd do what's required and not a bit more.
But if I tried to cover anything else, I'd expect my partners to jump in and save me from myself.
I was a PIAA official from 1987 through 1994. Worked my first varsity game and 3-person game there. I grew up and went to college in PA. They still make officials wear that goofy keystone patch on their sleeve?
