Schoolyard Pick

A Schoolyard Pick is often used in Survivor for choosing New Tribes or teams for Reward Challenges. These new groups will work together for a pre-determined amount of time, potentially creating new alliances and rivalries.

About
When a Schoolyard Pick is presented to the castaways, the opportunity to forge a stronger (or weaker) team is made. There is no one-way to form new tribes and several methods have been used.

Appearances

 * In, the castaways were marooned as one large group to start the game on Day Zero. After a challenge, the highest scoring castaways (Jessie & Shannon) then divided the tribes.
 * In, after a double tribal, Sam & Kevin chose the new Toliara and Atsimo tribes in a schoolyard pick, therefore switching the teams up again for a second time.
 * In, Alex & Hannah were chosen to be team captains, by random draw, in the beginning of Episode 5. In this episode, they chose the members for Pailin and Kandal 3.0 respectively.
 * In Survivor: Visayas, the oldest castaway of the season (Gaby) and the youngest castaway of the season (Gregory) would pick the original Cebu and Leyte, respectively.
