Football club? (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

association

This clue is a double definition.

'football' is the first definition.
(association football is a kind of football)

'club?' is the second definition.
(I know that club can be written as association)

(Other definitions for association that I've seen before include "Bond" , "Corporation" , "League" , "Company" , "Conceptual connection" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail, The Guardian and The Telegraph.
