team match

Squad versus squad

A team match is a competition between two groups rather than individuals, where the collective performance determines the winner.

The term appears across sports and games: Our team match against the rivals is Saturday.

In some contexts, particularly video games and racquet sports, it distinguishes group play from singles or free-for-all formats.
