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

'for test' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'right time to get you in to follow team' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'to get' says to put letters next to each other.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'to follow team' becomes 't' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
't'+'you'='tyou'
'r' going inside 'tyou' is 'tryou'.
'tryou'+'t'='TRYOUT'

'leader' is the link.
This may not be right. It may be part of another bit of the clue.
