Maybe what the team members really need is an example of the leadership that needs to be taken to make their team a success. Perhaps the key (since the team is a rookie one) is to get more adults involved for the mean time... adults who would be willing to take the students into groups and focus on their strengths. Once the students are confident that they can take the team into their own hands, they can do so.
I think they just need something to work off. Once their efforts get rolling, they're good to go.
