$25/game in what regular season league? Maybe it's a regional thing, but around these parts when you are working for $20-25/game there are no expectations for the officials to be switching on every foul or to run out to the reporting area. And though I'm putting the throw-in at the proper spot sometimes that will entail a long-distance bounce so that my partner and I don't have to rotate.

The players don't care where you are reporting your fouls from.
