Korfball drills

Goal of exercise:
With 4 players bring the ball to the hoops.
Trainer throws the ball into the field.

  • Opponents make free running difficult, but have hands on back.
  • The opponent defending around the player with the ball may use hands. The others don't.
  • Opponents try to intercept the ball and try to score.
Regularly correct on free running, speed up, directional changes, long pass instead of short, find space if corner is stuck.
Also be careful not to play over the basket and keep the space in front of the ball empty.
drawing Practice on working out
Setup:
  • In pairs, place the players in a row facing the wall.
  • Per pair 1 tennis ball.
Exercise:
  • Player 1 stands closest to the wall and begins the exercise by throwing the ball against the wall.
  • Player 2 catches the ball.
  • Player 1 meanwhile runs back through the right side and then catches the ball that player 2 just threw against the wall.
  • Repeat at least 20 times.
  • Make the exercise more difficult by having the ball caught in a hat.
Preparation:
  • Half Field.
  • Place hats on the back line with a tennis ball on top.
  • Place equal number of hats at the net.
Exercise:
  • Have the players run with the tennis ball to the overlying hat.
  • Have them put the ball down on the hat there for 2 seconds.
  • Pick it up again and run back to the starting hat.
  • 2 players per post.
  • 1 player is going to shoot, short around the basket.
  • 1 player is going to run.
  • You place about 5 hats at certain distances in front of the basket.
  • The player running must place them near the basket as fast as possible.
  • The shooter must score as many as possible before the runner finishes.
  • Then you switch positions and see who wins.
drawing Combination work
  • One pole per 2 players.
  • Per pole a player in support and a worker standing 7 meters in front of the pole.
  • The player in front of the post gets a -force- exercise, immediately after that he takes a run-through.
  • If he scores, then calmly walk back to the center.
  • If he misses it is a sprint to the center.
  • X number of exercises and change.

Explanation
  • Put a basket in each corner of the field.
  • At each basket, one player stands with a ball.
  • The remaining four players stand in the middle of the field.
  • 1 player is attack, three players are defender.
  • The defenders must defend the four baskets together.
  • The attacker tries to score a goal within 25 seconds.
  • After every 25 seconds it is a new attacker's turn.
  • When there are more than 8 players, rotate through.

  • 3- /4-pairs at a basket.
  • Play the ball in to the basket and move to the left, get the ball back and shoot.
  • Then move back to the right and take a through ball after hand change.
  • Which basket scores 10x first?
  • Then the same task change directions.

Per 3 or 4 at the basket:
  • Using pawns, divide the attacking area around the basket into 4.
  • There are players in 3 of these 4 areas.
  • If 4 players, set up a rebound.

  • The moment player white passes the ball to player blue, player white moves to the free area. Player blue plays on to player red, and then also starts filling in the free space.
  • Note: do not let players run away too quickly, make sure they remain playable. The idea is that they make a timely attack. Walk towards the ball.
  • Give a signal to shoot, the other 2 will fill in the rebound from space.
  • Then play again and repeat.
- If it goes well, also try it with a defender -> let the pass be given, but then make it more difficult to get free.
- If feasible, you can also implement a support in the exercise.
Let the players think for themselves who best fills this position.
drawing Filling free positions in round games
With 4 players:
  • Everyone stands at his/her pawn 5 meters from the basket. Players forming a team put themselves in the diagonal.
  • One player has the ball and shoots.
  • The others engage in the rebound duel - the shooter, too, if necessary.
  • Whoever has the ball gets to attack as a team.
  • Maximum of 2 chances.
  • Who has X goals first?
With 3 players:
  • The player who catches forms a team with the shooter.
  • 2 against 1 to attack.
Turn after each attack.
drawing Rebound - running duel
  • Poles in triangle:
    • At each basket someone with a ball with fixed pointer.
    • The other players in the middle at the 2 hoops.
  • From the middle you take a through ball to one of the baskets.
    • You may never go to the same post twice in a row.
    • You always move on to the next post by putting your foot in one of the hoops.
  • The goal is to score 5 times as fast as possible.
    • If you manage to do this, you move into one of the hoops. This hoop may then no longer be used by the others to move on to the next basket.
  • Then switch attackers and start again.
  • Halfway through the exercise switch to away balls.
drawing Walk-through ball and away ball competition
