Who can be in a team?
Well, this is up to you.
We don't require your teams to be formed in a specific way.
The only exception arises when a team includes anyone under 14 years old; in that case, at least one Leader must be included in the team. It's important to clarify that leaders are not merely accompanying or supporting the team; they actively participate in the event, making them one of the seven players on the team. Therefore, you cannot have seven Scouts or Guides plus an additional leader. Instead, the composition would consist of six Scouts or Guides alongside one Leader.
The adults in the team do have to be DBSs; however, it's up to you and your organisation's rules whether they are full leaders or just occasional helpers.
Teams can only have a maximum of 7 players, including any leaders; here is more information.
