... known for its innovative work in teaching skills and gaming. He has helped many more in the skills of some of the best players in the sport, including Auston Matthews, Nathan Mackinnon, Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane, Hayley Wicenheiser. As a pioneer in the NHL, Darriel's innovative methods have been described in detail in his books, Blefferi Hockey and Blefferi Attack. His continued impact on the sport has made him one of the most influential figures in the development of hockey players.
“1st episode”
The difference between coaching and training
Training in the face of coaching
Darryl explains that coaching is trying to coordinate a group of people in order to work as a single group to achieve a common goal. Coaching is much less personal, while training is a very personal process. In training, you try to get one of those people and maximize it. Often this involves analyzing and working on changing or improving habits, patterns and skills.
Should coaches do it before training the skill?
Darryll explains that there are benefits to the ability to demonstrate a skill, but it is not necessary for educators to perform that skill before training. Blefferi points out that he started as a very poor skateboard and took years to reach a higher level.
He suggests that coaches should be slowly and controlled so that they can explain. If they can't perform a skill, they can benefit from higher teammate players.
What should be the ratio of coaching to education?
Darrill considers 70% coaching and 30% of training during most exercises. First, move the group with coaching (which is 70%) so that the meeting will go and the players are not standing, but do not miss the educational opportunities of people (which is 30%).
Belfary points out that many educators lose training opportunities in training. Coaches can identify players who may need encouragement, or players who may need some advice to try different things, or top players may need more challenge. If coaches can identify times to educate players in the ice, it shows that you care about them that will make them more eager. The next section will explain that the coaches can get themselves out of the exercise until they have a training.
“2nd episode”
Put yourself out of the exercise.
In the second part of the Belfery Method program, Darril explains that you cannot run and teach a exercise at the same time.
Put yourself out of the exercise.
If the coaches want to train, they have to find ways to get themselves out of practice. You can ask other coaches to do the exercise, or you can ask your players to do the exercise, encouraging players to run the exercise allows you to monitor the educational opportunities and allow the kids Organize themselves and feel the potential with the pioneer.
“3rd episode”
Philosophy of practice
In the third part of the Blefferi program, Darryl explains his workout philosophies:
• Extracts the content of the exercise from the games.
• Exercises should be suitable for players' age and skill.
• Skills and skills should challenge players.
• He loves the darts to break down the subject or concept and make it again.
Darryl likes to give players several ways to manage one position. He uses the likeness of a carpenter and his tools. He explains that the carpenter, which comes to a workplace with a tool, cannot manage all situations, while if the carpentry comes to the workplace with a truck full of tools, it will be able to manage any situation offered to him.
You can practice a few skills with your players and finally ask them to practice the practicing and training skills in a drill or in a game.
“4th episode”
Manage the gap of achievements
In the fourth part of the Belfary Method program, Belfary coach talks about how to manage the talent difference in his team, which he calls "the gap of achievement"
4 ways that coaches can work with all levels of talent:
1. Put the time to teach and show that you value them: showing that you care about the progress of your players, encouraging them to improve. The coaches should do this with all their team players, regardless of their talent level.
2.Encouraging coaching: One of the best ways to learn is to teach. The coaches should encourage players to coach each other and help each other progress.
3. Training Correction: Coaches can change the exercise to better adapt to the talented players or to challenge more talented players.
4.Identify the progress and encourage it: Tell the players that they are progressing! This encourages them to continue progress.
Coaches can challenge their top players in each exercise through:
• Add challenge or skills to a exercise
• Encourage them to do things faster
• Apply for Training to Talented Players

Bridge between practice and play
In this part of the Belfery program, Darril is about bridging between exercise and open. In his view, games are basically a test. Coaches should use exercises to work on specific skills or concepts and then use the game as a "test" to see if the exercises are effective.
Key points:
• Games can be used as "tests" to see if the exercises were useful.
• The ratio of 1 to 2 allows the game to give players to the new skills and concepts before they have their "test" to implement them in a game.
• Subject exercises help the player can have a lot of repetition of a new skill or concept, which helps them to understand deep understanding and repetition more of a particular skill, rather than just a lot of exercises. Have unrelated practice.
• Coaches must return to the principles with the concepts they taught early in the season. Darrill uses the likeness of the "accumulation" of the skills on each other and says it is important to return to the basic consolidation during the season.
“6th Episode”
Simulation of small stations and games to learn
In this part of the Belfary Method program, Darryl talks about how coaches simulate stations and games to learn by coaches.
Key Tips for Small Games:
• Darryl explains that nothing is good at the extent. For example, just doing small games or just practicing skills is not the best approach for maximum training and recovery.
• Coaches do not need to be specialized in a specific skill to teach it. Coaches can learn the basics to be an effective teacher.
• The only children who really get small games are those who are on the right side of the gap gap (you can know more about the gap in Part 1).
• Players who have already had problems in small games will also be in trouble, which is why it is useful to break down a game and work with children so they can develop new skills and confidence that they can in Small games use it.
• Darrill likes to start training with a game to highlight the problems and issues that the team can work on.
• If you add restrictions on the game in small spaces, make sure the rules added to the game are practical and improved.
Key Tips of Stations:
• Darryl loves stations but feels that stations are useful when all stations have a central theme and purpose. He believes that the best way to progress is to do all the players at the stations the same theme with the same theme and then the whole group progresses.
• He likes to finish the stations' skill training with a game to test the players.
• Coaches can adjust players to compete with each other to compete with each other to adjust the matches equal or unequal.
“7th episode”
Mindfulness of 100 % responsibility for coaches
In this part of the Blefferi Method program, Darril talks about the responsibility of the coaches in the development of players. This mentality makes the coach strive for the player and bring positive results to everyone in the long run.
Key points:
• Coaches never really know what problems a player is experiencing.
• If a coach accepts 100% the responsibility of a player's development, he will try to help the player as much as possible.
• Darryl realized that when he takes responsibility for 100% to inspire, enhance, empower and engage in players, his energy would attract children, and this is a much more positive experience for him and the players.
“8th episode”
Encouragement to try and participate in exercises
In this part of the Belfary Method program, Darril talks about four ways to encourage efforts to participate in training.
3 Idea to encourage effort and partnership:
1. Generally slow down the exercise to act as a re -start and then speed it up.
2.Focus on increased speed, which will make players pass and skate faster.
3.Add exercises with competitive features. Darrill will add an extra game and start the teams with a 1-1 result to have to work harder to win (or the other team is 2-1 and they have to be hard to maintain their superiority.).
When the effort and speed returns to the desired level, he makes sure to announce this and tell the players that they are doing a great job!
“9th episode”
How to learn from NHL games?
In this part of the Belfary Method program, Darryl explains how coaches and players can learn by watching professional games.
Key Tips for Watching Professional Games:
• Coaches can pay attention to the forms of ice. You can see triangles, diamonds and more.
• When you are a fan of a team, you only focus on watching clean, but if you want to learn more about the game, it's important to get away from clean and focus on players who do not have clean, but if you want to learn more about the game, important It is to get away from clean and watch the playing players.
• Sitting at a higher altitude can provide a better view of shapes.
• You can watch parts of the game like Pair or a special line.
• Coaches can watch a particular player, but it is important for the coach to watch them when they are not clean.
• Or you can compare the first center line with the fourth center line. What do they do the same? What do they do different?
Introducing video clips to young players
• Video can be useful for further explaining concepts. You don't want to overdo it, but a few short video clips to explain the concepts can provide more value and understanding.
• Showing videos of ice players themselves can be helpful. So showing one or two clips of what a player does well can be a great way to start a conversation and help them improve in a particular field.
“10th episode”
Understanding the speed and how to master it
In this part of the "Belfery Method", Darril talks about "understanding speed", generally that each player in the ice processs at different levels. Some players understand the game more quickly.
How to help players on the game's speed:
1. Note that all children process the game at different speeds.
2. Open all the players minds who will make different decisions if they can see the whole ice.
3.Encourage the players that have the problem with the speed of the game.
• Encourage them to relax, process and expand their vision.
• Help players learn to prepare for it before an event. He uses the following example:
“When is the best time to dig a well? Are you thirsty and dehydrated? Or before you have a dehydration? Clearly, it is best to dig the well before you become dehydrated. "This mindset can be used for ice sites.
4. This requires effort, but imagine working with a player during the season and the player can decide calmly at the end of the year.
5. Makers can adjust the environment to the benefit or loss of players in the exercise. They can give the top players less space and create more challenges and give children more difficult to play and create less challenge to build their self -esteem.
6. Find out some of the time to work with players who need help.
“11th episode”
You have more things to provide as a coach
In this part of the Belfary Method program, the Belfary coach talks about the fact that the coaches are much more than they think. As a coach, you really have the opportunity to positively affect a player's life. So many years later, they can remember you as their favorite coach and thank you for their impact on their lives.
Darryl talks about the importance of the coaches to put the puzzle pieces together for the players. A little extra time to learn can have a great impact.
