What is a "taxi squad"?
A taxi squad is a group of reserve players in team sports who do not regularly play in games but are kept ready to join the main team when needed. These players practice with the team, stay fit, and are available to replace injured or unavailable teammates. Taxi squads are often used in sports leagues to ensure the team has enough players for games throughout a season.
