Was this generated manually or is it database driven?
If the latter, I assume the code is currently displaying the markers on the geographical center of the town/city/area. When displaying the data, have the code check if any other teams are from that same city; if so, add a small offset (a few hundred meters) to the display coordinates.
You could also create a geometric function on where to offset the team markers based upon the number of teams that need to be offset, almost like where the dots are on a pair of dice. If pursuing this option, be sure to leave the function open ended (have it automatically continue creating points), as there are some huge cities (both in population and geographic area) that have a large number of teams.
