Default Mixed Slowpitch strategy question

Since this isn't pro sports I'll put this in here since there are a few CP'ers who play slow pitch.

So I'm playing in a mixed slow pitch league this year. Being relatively new to the area (South Okanagan not Calgary) I ended up on a patch work team of new players. As a result the female players on our team are not particulary good and aren't the types who played ball as kids.

So you have to put 4 of them on the field and we have 1 who can kind of catch the ball. Where can you hide 3 of them on the field and get away with it? Catcher is obvious, Rover seems like another one, the one who can kind of catch...maybe first base? Although if your first base only catches half of the balls thrown that way you'll give up 7 runs a lot, so maybe third base is better if she's agile and award enough to dodge the odd line drive and not get hurt? As for the other one, one of the outfield positions, or 2nd base and switch with the shortstop if it's a left handed hitter?
