ANother thing to consider about being the worst player on a team, is what position does the girl play?
DD 1 was the worst player out of 11 on a team, but she played OF. There were games when they could only round up 9 or even 8 players, so she had plenty of playing time. She did not quit from lack of playing time, but from lack of confidence.
DD 3 has always been either the best or one of the best players on her teams, but she is a pitcher. Last year she was one of two reliable pitchers, and a bit of a drop to the third pitcher. This year she is one of the two starters, with a reliable third pitcher who can start in pool play and relief the rest of the time. The third pitcher they had last year didn't pitch more than a few innings the entire season. Being the worst player on a good team can be rotten for a P or C, or even some IF positions.
