Resident displays the team (4)
I believe the answer is:
side
'team' is the definition.
(both can mean a sports team)
'resident displays' is the wordplay.
'displays' says the answer is hidden in the clue (part of the clue displays the answer).
'SIDE' can be found hidden inside 'resident'.
'the' is the link.
(Other definitions for side that I've seen before include "Not the main" , "Wolves, say" , "party" , "Competing players" , "Neighbourhood" .)
