How does a person become part of a team on this site? Just wondering my brother and I are new to it and we were just wondering.

You'll have to wait till next year. Sign-ups begin around July 1st and the deadline is around Sept 15th of each year. Stick around its a lot of fun.

so the deer i shot this year cant go in for this year or next years contest
