Personally, I think it's the students that chooses on whether or not they'd want to make a fool out of themselves--just to have fun. Or maybe, it's just something teams do not focus very hard on. But from personal experiences, our spirit usually depends each year on how spirited the students want to be.

Smile Re: team spirit?

It's not a question of who has spirit. Everyone on the team has some degree of spirit. It's more a question of who wants to take the initiative and show it?

From what I've seen, a good number of teams have 1-2 members that exude team spirit and get the group going. Other teams that are smaller than the ubber teams wait and use it at the right time.

So, yes there is team spirit but most of the time it is saved for when it is needed most.
