You need to write a template tag that returns the necessary HTML fragment to display the list. So your template tag would extract the list of all the teams from the database and then return a string (or a dictionary if you are using the inclusion_tag shortcut). See http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#shortcut-for-simple-tags for a quick introduction to writing template tags (if you want a more detailed overview, have a look at the section just before that anchor point).
