Grammar Question

So I was watching a video on English grammar. The instructor said this sentence is correct:
The team are dressing in the locker room.
Shouldn’t it be:
The team is dressing in the locker room.

Depends on whether you’re speaking about the team as individuals or as a single entity. The members of the team ARE dressing. The notion of the team itself is not dressing. They, the team, are dressing.

Was the video British? Because in the UK, collective nouns are plural far more often than in US English. On the SAT, collective nouns like “team” are always singular, although I can imagine an exception in which the sentence specifies that they’re plural somehow.

No, the video was made by an American company. Thanks for the help though!

Team is a single entity, so yeah, it’s supposed to be the latter.

I know for a fact that in the SAT, team IS a singular noun.

For ACT and SAT Team is singular.
