titleAre there any specific requirements for the composition or roles for members of the CMT?

We expect every contingent to bring a Head of Contingent (HoC). Besides the HoC, we encourage you to have someone for Safeguarding / Safe from Harm in order to help your participants and IST in your own language and keeping in mind your own culture.  Bigger contingents may consider bringing medical doctor/nurse/paramedics.  If you want to have a look at the number of CMT allowed for your contingent, you can find a table
