Create teams for a single competition, and nobody's real team or department changes.

Set up the competition teams

• Open your competition's Settings. Under Who's competing?, choose Custom Teams and pick a theme: Animals, Football, Space, Fantasy, Nature or Vehicles.

• Each click on Add team creates a team with a name and an illustrated avatar, such as Lion Team or Strikers. You can rename it, pick a different illustration or upload your own image.

• Add people from the dropdown. Or click Distribute unassigned to spread everyone who is left evenly across the teams.

How it plays

• A team's score combines its members' results on any metric, including multi-metric points.

• The winning team's coin prize is split among its members.

• Team names and avatars appear on the competition page, on competition cards and on TV screens. The leaderboard updates live.

• If you move people between teams mid-competition, the scores recalculate straight away. Recurring competitions keep the same teams every round.
