How do I improve my gameunderstanding?

The Question:How can I optimally increase my gameunderstandig.Introduction: I am a 15y (M), and I've been playing for about a year. I've already been taken out for the lowest form of "collection events of promising talents", if you could call it that. The Problem:My problem is the lack of experience in this sport, and therefore make errors when I try to be a playmaker. I feel like I'm setting my fellow teamates up for failures, and I feel like like I have to improve myself at a much faster pace then now.
