thoughts on reporting mechanics

[footlocker]

I had an established ref friend of mine watch a game and give me some pointers. Although, all I ever hear in high school is to slow down the reporting (our association is picky about mechanics.); he suggested I speed it up and not make the presentation so slow it looks like I'm trying to draw attention.

I thought about his advise for a while and watched some Division I and NBA games where the officials have greater liberty in what the display mechanically as a foul. (i.e. they hit thier heads, or hit the arm the way it was hit in the play.) So I had some full dress games for our state middle school tournament. As I worked the games, I found that reporting this way left less for the coach to question, a more descriptive and accurate explanation of the foul, and it helped me maintain my focus on the actual plays.

What are other officials thoughts on a more descriptive display of the foul even though it would be off the federation's perscribed mechanics?

Anyone else do this?
