What is {\em teamwork} in multi-agent systems? It is not trivial to give a suitable definition of {\em teamwork} for teams of agents working together, because agents do not have innate goals, purposes, or instincts. This difficulty becomes clear when we consider {\em teamwork} in soccer-playing teams of agents in which all agents share the same goal and purpose. In order to approach to suitable definitions, I investigate {\em teamwork} from several point of view and try to figure out the possible definitions.
