Sports ground charge to include European copy (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

recreate

'copy' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'sports ground charge to include european' is the wordplay.
'sports ground' becomes 'rec' (I've seen this in other clues).
'charge' becomes 'rate' (rate is a kind of charge).
'to include' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'european' becomes 'e' (abbreviation e.g. EU).
'rate' placed around 'e' is 'reate'.
'rec'+'reate'='RECREATE'

(Other definitions for recreate that I've seen before include "Bring back" , "design again" , "Produce again" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
