I think the point of the teamwork challenge is less about how "well" they do it and more about "how" they go about doing it.  You could always designate one team member as the timekeeper and have him or her wear a watch, if your team is concerned.

Subject: [VADCFLL-L] Teamwork Challenge - Timer?
Sent: Nov 10, 2010 1:12 PM

Our team is headed to the State competition, but one of the areas they
want to work on between now and then is the team work challenge.  They 
had trouble keep track of their time while in the challenge at the regional 
tournament and they asked me today if they could bring a timer in with them 
to help manage their time better.  Can they bring a simple digital kitchen timer 
into the challenge with them?

Thanks so much and we look forward to meeting so many new teams at 
State.  Good luck to those who are competing over the next two weeks.
