How to Start a TeamDestination Imagination teams require the oversight of an adult team manager, over the age of 18, who is interested in providing opportunities for children to learn new skills and solve a Destination Imagination team challenge.
All team managers must pass a background check before forming a team in order to protect the health and safety of team members. They must also be willing to participate in training, meetings with team members (virtually and/or in person), and help the team prepare for tournament events.
