Crossword Genius

Take off sports gear (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strip

I believe this is a double definition.

'take off' is the first definition.
(I know that strip is a more specific form of the action take off)

'sports gear' is the second definition.
(as in a team's strip)

(Other definitions for strip that I've seen before include "Tear off" , "Remove clothing" , "runway" , "Take off one's clothes" , "Undress (provocatively)" .)
