This is because each person who was appointed Captain on their respective teams, was appointed for a reason whether the rest of the team was either in support or not.
That does seem to make it clear that you indeed meant exactly the word "Captain" from the start. However, you're still not addressing what I see being asked: what is your reason for limiting it to people with that title? Not all teams use military nomenclature.

On the other hand, other parts of your response do appear to be more inclusive:

Quote:
In any well run team, organization, or business, there is always a leader to keep things moving and on track. I simply want to network with those people.

...This group however is for the core group of individuals who were given the opportunity to lead their teams through the many trials and tribulations of build season and competition.
So it's still not clear that you would keep a "Team President" or a "CEO" or a "Principal Lead Student" from joining the group. Would you mind answering the simple question of whether the specific title of "Captain" is required? (And if not, why did you name the group that way?)
