Javascript

function theteam() {
    document.add_team_frm.action = "team.php";
    document.add_team_frm.submit();
}

HTML

<form name="add_team_frm" action="team.php" method="post">
<select name="team_name[]">
<option value="0">Select Team</option>
<option value="1">Team A</option>
<option value="2">Team B</option>
<option value="3">Team C</option>
</select>
<a href="javascript:theteam()">Submit Team</a>

try this:

function theteam(){

   //check select
   if(document.getElementById('selectID').value == 'whatever'){
        document.forms['add_team_frm'].submit();
   }
   else { /*select check failed*/ }

}
