Swedish term or phrase: representationslag
Can someone help me? I'm inquiring about a good English translation of the Swedish word “representationslag”, that is, in a sporting context. This team that represents a club in the highest divisional series or league, irregardless of sport.

Incorrect terms, not applicable in this context:

• "representative team" — refers to a national team

• "varsity" — referring to either high school, college or university
