Gallons is the most likely used measure to represents 30 units of sport drink for a football team.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
For a football team consisting at least 11 players, needs 30 units of sport drink to be used in a single match.

A cup
A gallon
Calculation:
As 30 units of sports drink is to be used and if it is represented in ounces, it will hardly be equal to 4 cups which is insufficient for a football team per match.
