Jenn's feedback:

"You have done an excellent job formatting your paper, which is essential because neatly formatted writing is easier to read. You have also done well with the content of your essay. You have included a decent amount of specific ideas and details. However, some areas could benefit from some elaboration for the sake of clarification or answering questions that might pop up in readers' minds.

While you have included both an introduction and a conclusion, they both could benefit from some refinement. While your introduction has a thesis statement, the body of your paper does not align with it. Since the thesis statement presents a list, the reader tends to expect to read the information presented in the order of the list. You may want to consider having the body of your paper consist of four paragraphs (where they are played, how they are played, what they wear, types of balls) that both compare and contrast the two sports. Your conclusion could also use some elaboration. The conclusion should summarize the main points you made in the body of the paper and relate to the introduction. Last, there are significant grammar, sentence structure, and word choice errors scattered throughout the writing. Consider having someone proofread the paper so that they can provide you with specific feedback."
