# GET /v2/leagues/{id}/team-of-the-week

Group: Leagues

The team of the week of one round or week: the best-rated players as a line-up — formation, each player with his team, position, the rating that earned the place and the match it is from.

Plans: Pro + Business only (other plans get 403 endpoint_not_in_plan).

Note: Football: 11 players, order 1 = the goalkeeper; the NBA: 5 players, formation "2-3". Ratings are the source’s match ratings (0–10). A team never changes once published.

## Parameters

| Name | In | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | path | yes | our numeric id (positive integer) |
| `season` | query | yes | a season id from /v2/leagues/{id}/seasons |
| `period` | query | no | a period id from /v2/leagues/{id}/team-of-the-week/periods (default: the newest) |

## Response

- `data`: `TeamOfTheWeek`
- `meta`: season, period (the period served), count (players)
- Objects: TeamOfTheWeek (https://sportsapi.app/markdown/en/reference.md#teamoftheweek)

## Errors

- 403 history_not_in_plan — the season ended before your plan’s history
- 404 no_data — the source has no team of the week for this league and season (yet)
