in the team or at the team We use "in" when things or people are contained by other things. Is Sam in the basketball team? Could you please explain the use of "in" in the sentence above. It's hard for me to understand why I should use "in" and not "at" for example. Thank you!

In American English: "On a team" means being a member of a team. It refers having been officially placed *on* the roster listing the team's players: - Sam's so happy about being on the basketball team. "In a team" means being in place with others for the purpose of working together: - The six horses were harnessed together in a team. "As a team" means working with others to accomplish something. - The volunteers worked as a team to put the fire out. "For a team" means for the benefit of a team: - That new forward is doing great things for the basketball team. - Sam's father baked cupcakes for the whole team. "At a team"... I can't think of it making sense as anything other than "in the direction of": - The cheering crowd threw handfuls of confetti at the team.

(In a team or for a team) are used in British English while (on a team) is common in American English. At a team?! I've never heard or seen.
