The Choice of a Music Team Director is a life changing one. When it comes to building an excellent and effective team, the head point decision is one you can't toil with. I've seen many assemblies assign MDs based on how long the person has stayed within the system or how much the fellow gives and other emotional conditions. They forgo the real criteria to consider.
