I've heard this reference regarding different team plans, and I'm not sure what this means.
Thanks.

I would assume it means the person is up front, and the position of the players makes a sort of point, where this person is the lead man. "You take point" means you get up there in front and take a chance being in front of everyone else. The point man is most likely to make the play. In football it might mean a linebacker is running in front of a RB to block for him or something.

In the military it's a frontman on tactical exercises, so I would assume the same.
The frontman, which doesn't necessarily have to mean the leader. There may be one individual selected to present the team's findings.

on point means taking the front position leading the movement. Such as a POINT guard in basketball.

Someone in the front, the leader. It's actually used in the army and by cowboys...and several other occupations...the "point man" who's in the front.

Probably means they're targeted for something.

It means their approach in on the mark.
