A team player is someone who places the well being of the team ahead of the well being of him-/herself. A team with members who act cooperatively and seek to achive the common goal functions better than a team with members that only focus on their own individual goals.

A team player will sometimes act in a way that might not be optimal for him as individual in the short term (in fact it might even be determental) in order to. This is called 'taking one for the team'.

Sometimes small individual sacrifice can drastically help other team members.
