Coach's best (1-4)

I believe the answer is:

a-team

'coach's best' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for a-team that I've seen before include "Elite troops" , "Elite group of soldiers or workers" , "top people" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
