Bear in mind one of the team is after one of those flipping Wards (8)
I believe the answer is:
remember
'bear in mind' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'one of the team is after one of those flipping wards' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'me' (a setter might use 'one' to humourously mean 'me') and 'me' is found in the answer.
'is' could be 'be' and 'be' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for remember that I've seen before include "Mark" , "Think back" , "Recal, recollect" , "Summon back to mind" , "Retain memory of" .)
