Drink with group of players no end (3)
I believe the answer is:
tea
'drink' is the definition.
(tea is a drink)
'group of players no end' is the wordplay.
'group of players' becomes 'team' (I've seen this in another clue).
'no end' means to remove the last letter.
'team' with its final letter taken off is 'TEA'.
'with' is the link.
(Other definitions for tea that I've seen before include "Shrub; drink" , "Afternoon meal; drink" , "Plantation product" , "brewer's product" , "Perhaps Indian" .)
