0Collective nouns can be tricky when it comes to subject-verb agreement. Most of the time they are treated as singular. If you are considering the entire team members as being a single unit, then I think it's better to use 'has.' But if you are considering each member as individuals, then you should use 'have.' In your case above, I would pick 'has.'02br
