[put an array @teams into the 0th element of $self]
The proper syntax is
    $self->[0]{teams} = [ @teams ];

That makes a copy. If you don't want that, for example because it could
contain millions of items, you can use

     $self->[0]{teams} = [EMAIL PROTECTED];


Some times you want a copy and some times you want to save time and space. This also makes a copy.

  @{ $self->[0]{teams} } = @teams;

It's important to note that both forms only make top level copies, that is, only the items in the top level of @teams is copied. If @teams contain references, then what they refer to is not copied.
