Team in residence (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

side

'team' is the definition.
(both can mean a sports team)

'in residence' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'SIDE' is hidden in the letters of 'residence'.

(Other definitions for side that I've seen before include "Team - border" , "Team - arrogance" , "by no means a front" , "A quarter, or half" , "faction" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
