A and the
The Board of Control for Cricket in India's Chief Executive Officer Rahul Johri will be in Jamaica to meet Indian captain Virat Kohli and his team, in an attempt to get a feedback on the appointment of the new head coach.
Please explain to me the use of "a" before "feedback" and "the" before "appointment".
Is "appointment" a noncount able here? What makes them indefinite and definite respectively in the context?
Thank you.

feedback is an uncountable noun, so 'a feedback' is wrong. Just say 'feedback' or 'some feedback'. the appointment shows the writer expects the readers to be already aware of this appointment.
