Team Bonding Impacts Of Three Motivational Teams Challenges means the focus on Three Motivational Teams Challenges is 'team performance' and not 'individual performance':

(a)        The 'Award' by Panel Of Three Judges during the Three Motivational Teams Challenges will be for 'Team Performance', with no explicit 'Award' for individual performance, although patently RTV viewers, and the Cross Section Of Mentors and the Various Parties, will evidence some outstanding individual performances.

(b)        The Winning Township Team will be announced by the Panel Of Three Judges for each of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges.  There will be no 'Runner up' or 'Third Place' awards.  

The Three Motivational Teams Challenges are not about ranking -

*           the performance of individual students from amongst the 140 Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students; or

*           the relative performance of the Ten Regional Township Teams.

They are about 'my team' striving to succeed - 'one for all and all for one'.

In the case of the initial two of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges there will be two Winning Township Teams as there will be Two Challenge Venues for each of the :

• Year 9  Mixed Teams' Tri-Sports Challenge
  5 of the Ten Regional Township Teams will attend the Western City Tri-Sports Challenge and remaining 5 will attend the Eastern City Tri-Sports Challenge.

• Year 10  Mixed Teams' Public Speaking Challenge
  Ten Regional Township Teams will attend the Southern City Public Speaking Challenge.

Winning Township Team explains the diverse criteria that the Panel Of Three Judges will take into account when determining the five Winning Township Teams at the Four Challenge Judging Venues.
