I noticed that as well. I have found that most volunteers are tied to a team one way or another.

Some are, some aren't. Many event volunteers work for a sponsor of the event. Many are from the community that have been asked to volunteer (judges, website evaluators, PR, media/VIP people, etc.). Some of us may have started out with a FIRST program team but are no longer affiliated with one, because we've "gone over to the dark side" and are now event or program volunteers!

Done.....
I struggled a bit with the context of the questions. It was hard for me to fit my issues within the context of these particular questions and some of the selections didn't really jive with my thoughts. I hope I got my point(s) across.
