>> The Team Leader must be a U.S. citizen, must speak English and will serve as the official technical point of contact for communications with the HAS organizers.
So ya, Canadians are allowed but only if the boss is a US citizen. Don't see any resident language. I make the point because some of the best satellite spotters/finders/hackers are Canadians, such Scott Tilley who was recently in the news for finding a long-forgotten navigation sat. Or Ted Molczan who may have spotted the legendary Prowler sat.
(This is natural. Canadians are better positioned to spot satellites due to their darker sky and the longer dawn/dusk periods of higher latitudes.)
In the hackathon environments I've been in there isn't really an organizational hierarchy per team. Team Leader really means Team Representative; i.e. they only want one person coming up to give/receive items/documents/information, so they ask each team to pick a leader who can interact with the event staff.
