How to show sub tasks only on a team's board

I have 3 teams (2 are scrum teams, 3rd one is the operations team).   I've created 3 boards for each of these teams and also created a custom field ScrumTeam which takes only one value which is one of the three teams (team 1, team 2, team 3.   

I have the boards setup with the filter on the custom field so each team only sees items pertaining to them.  

Problem I am having is that  I have certain user stories, tasks, or even bugs that would have sub tasks that need to go to a different team (Operations team for example).  So I assign the sub task's scrum team value to Ops team (parent issue still has scrum team value = 'team 1'.   But this doesn't work because I am not seeing the sub task on the Ops team board.

What I want to achieve is that want the three team's board to show only the item that belong to them but this item could be a sub task.

Hope I explained myself clearly.

Please share your ideas.

Dear @Janany Satkunam,

what you have explained sounds like the natural behavior of Jira. "Children" (sub tasks) are always stuck to their "Parent" (stories) :) It makes sens not to decouple them, because one story should only be done by one team.

Eventually it is better to raise the sub-tasks one level up (Story, Task) and assign them to an Epic. Then this assigning to the boards should work.

BtW: Can you post the board filters, please?

So long

Thomas
