Trip with mates, I suspect, that's good for morale (4,6)

I believe the answer is:

team spirit

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

'good for morale' is the definition.
'team spirit' can be an answer for 'morale' (synonyms). I'm not certain of the 'good for' bit.

'trip with mates i suspect' is the wordplay.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'suspect' is an anagram indicator (a suspicious or unusual spelling).
'mates'+'i'='matesi'
'trip' after 'matesi' is 'matesitrip'.
'matesitrip' with letters rearranged gives 'TEAM SPIRIT'.

'that's' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for team spirit that I've seen before include "mood in the group" , "Cooperative had plenty of?" , "Esprit de corps" , "feeling of camaraderie" , "Morale" .)
