Japanese term (edited):

Four 12-member teams
It's kind of ambiguous, but I think this is the intended meaning. "Four groups x 12 persons" isn't very clear in English.
Another way to put it in English is "four teams of 12 people each."
Another way to put it in English is "four teams of 12 people each."

IN general that's true, but I've met a lot of non-natives who write perfect English for the purpose. I'd take Bill Lise's comments with a grain of salt. ;-)
