eCYBERMISSION

What Makes a Team

Every eCYBERMISSION entry is built on a specific team structure:

• 2–4 students, in grades 6–9. Students can span multiple grades on the same team — the team simply competes at the highest grade level of any of its members. Students can only be on one team.
• One Team Advisor — a teacher, program leader, parent/guardian, or other adult. eCYBERMISSION requires one registered Team Advisor per team.
• No limit on the number of teams a single Team Advisor can support, and no limit on how many teams a school can enter per grade — a teacher running multiple classes or clubs can register several teams.

Registration is individual; the team has to be assembled separately. Each student and the Team Advisor create their own eCYBERMISSION account. Then, the Team Advisor creates teams and assigns registered students to a team in their account. A team isn’t complete, and can’t submit their Mission Folder for judging, until:

1. [1]The Team Advisor has registered
2. [2]All 2–4 students have registered individually
3. [3]The Team Advisor has placed all of them on a team

All three must occur before the registration deadline (February 24, 2027). A student who registers but is never added to a team, or a team with fewer than two members by the deadline, is unable to submit a Mission Folder. Team Advisors managing multiple teams should confirm both registration and team assignment for every student — not just their own account status before the deadline.

Your Team Advisor can apply for a Mini-Grant by November 11, 2026, to help fund any needed supplies and provide a Team Advisor stipend.
