tracking info from multiple tables in one master tracker

i am trying to create a database that will track donations for multiple teams
that will use this database. i would like for each team to have their own
table and form to record their donations and for all of the tables to also be
saved in a master tracker that will be a record of all the teams donations
combined. i am not sure how to make the master tracker automatically update
each time a new entry is added in any of the teams individual tables

Naa, use one table with field to designate team.
Use a team select form that opens on startup to open form for data entry
that team identity based on team selection in startup form.

so if i do that, i would have one table. then i could use a query or a
report for each individual teams donation record?

how would i make the table recognize which team it was based on the form it
was entered from?

The second form, data entry form, would have hidden text box bound to team
field of the table with default for team selected in first form.

Yes, or even a single parameter query that asks for (or looks up on a
form) the selected team.
