Great idea. You could also have the team A students help student A into position by giving him or her further instructions in the target language, such as, "No, behind John, not in front of him". An added benefit is that you are reinforcing the imperative, such as, "Student A, sit under the desk". If a student uses his or her native language, that team would lose its turn.

One fun "game" I've done with my basic level ESL classes is to go outside and have students stand in a circle. We pass a soccer ball to, beside, between, etc. Then I ask all students to turn to the right (still in a circle, but all facing right) and pass in front of or behind. We're lucky enough to have a soccer field, but this could easily be done anywhere with large enough space. This is also a great way for the students to learn each other's names!
