outline thingy

Sports stories give highlights of different games. Gisondi says that there are five main things that sports stories must have:
  • storyline: significance of the events and bits about the players involved
  • basically just an overview of what happened 
  • context: key details, use the nut graph, not narrative 
  • quotes: comments from players/coaches of both teams
  • key plays: important plays throughout the game
Other stuff:
    • game stories: harder to write because you have to write them sat because of quick deadlines
    • research: before writing the story research the team, players and coach
    Story:
    • includes score, best players, interesting plays etc.
