The one other element that is needed, on top of what you mentioned already, is: CLEAR field markings, and commonsense rules about determining if someone is in or out of a zone or in some other similar position that determines points. "Clearly contacting" not "obviously overhanging" (or vice-versa depending on what sort of zone you're talking about--2005, the latter. 2014, either/or. 2012, the former.")

And a good balance between foul points and playing points, but that's very tough to do right every time.
