A VIP organised celebrity team building (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pavilion

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'team building' is the definition.
'pavilion' can be an answer for 'building' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'team' bit.

'a vip organised celebrity' is the wordplay.
'organised' indicates an anagram.
'celebrity' becomes 'lion' (both can mean a celebrated person).
'a'+'vip'='avip'
'avip' anagrammed gives 'pavi'.
'pavi'+'lion'='PAVILION'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pavilion that I've seen before include "marquee" , "Summer house" , "summerhouse" , "Building on sports ground for players and spectators" , "Exhibition tent; sports building" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
