Apostrophe Abuse/neglect

So..... my kid's teacher "corrected" a poster I wrote....

I have two questions:

1) Which is correct:

a) Intra-Mural Sports' Teams
b) Intra-Mural Sports Teams
c) Intra-Mural Sport's Teams

It's a title referring to several school teams who play a sport against teams from other schools. The teams are the people doing the fundraising the poster is about, so this appears in the "name" section of the headings.

2) Where is that poster people always link to here about how to use an apostrophe, stupid..... (not the Bob the Angry Flower one -the other one)
