use two diffrent queries like bellow

SQL

update u set team=s.uteam
from User_list_SQL as U, SQlVal as S
where U.name=S.uname

SQL

update s set S.flag='Y'
from User_list_SQL as U, SQlVal as S
where U.name=S.uname

because,
you can not update multiple table in one single update statement.. what you can do is wrap the update statement in a transaction, commit changes only when both update are successful
