| I think having a team prize is a nice way of involving people. Mahjong is primarily an individual game (unlike contract bridge), and prizes for tournaments so far only reward the best players (example, top three). A team prize can be the goal for a team where the players are not necessarily the best individual players, but strong as a team of four players. A lot of sports also have 'team' events even though the sportsmen cannot help each other during the game (e.g. badminton, tennis, table tennis etc.), but the combined efforts of all the players in their own events (e.g. singles, doubles, mixed doubles etc.) can give them a team prize. So, I think the idea of having teams in mahjong tournaments works along these lines. |
