Korfball drills

  • The player with the ball plays the ball with two hands to the player at the other cone, runs after the ball and joins the players at that cone.
  • A simple and recognizable exercise.
  • Developing speed from the throw is a possible point of attention to keep these exercises attractive for older players.
  • In pairs you take turns shooting from a stand of about 6-8 metres.
  • You shoot 3x per turn, at least 1 must be hit, otherwise you walk 3x around the basket from the shot point.
  • Who is the first to score 10 times.
  • The one who does this in the fewest turns is the winner.
    • NB You can also use this exercise to test if there is progress in the shot percentage.

In short:

  • Shooting exercise (-game) in which shots are made from different sides of the basket.


Organisation:

  • Per basket one pair with one ball, or in case of lack of sufficient baskets 2 pairs with one ball each.
  • At each basket, four pawns or other markers:
  • 1 in front of and 1 behind the basket and 1 to the left and 1 to the right of the basket, always at about 6 metres distance.
  • One of each pair starts under the basket.
  • The other one's task is to score a goal as quickly as possible from each cone.
  • After that, they will switch functions.
  • Which pair will be quickest to complete their 'journey around the world'?


Variation:

  • The distances can be made larger or smaller. Or: score 2 goals with each pawn.


Variation:

  • Instead of shooting from standstill, you can also shoot from movement, or simply: take evasive balls.
  • Filling in positions. In the 3v3 you are constantly filling in the function shot, pass or rebound.
  • You can vary endlessly in this exercise.
  • Do you play on the breakthrough, on the dodge, on the distance shot or do you look for it in small chances around the basket?
  • The assignment can be: score a distance shot, a walk-through ball and a small chance.
  • The defenders will change their tactics when one of the shots is ready.
  • You are all in a row, the first 2 people get a ball.
  • The intention is that the 2nd person in the row score earlier than the first stood.
  • If that happens, the person who scored may join at the back and the person who lost may sit on the side.
  • Does number 1 score first, he/she joins the back and gives the ball to the next person in line
  • then he/she is number 2 and the one who was already busy becomes number 1

3 against 2

  • Game over 2 baskets. Play continues until first pair has 3 goals.
  • All other pairs stop immediately.
  • In case of a tie, the first team to score a tie wins.
  • At 0-0 stop.
  • Winners to the left losers to the right.
  • The aim of the game is to be the first to write down the numbers from 1 to 100.
  • Two players play against each other.
  • The first one to score 2 goals
    • The trainer chooses which way to start writing.
  • The trainer chooses which way he wants to play.
  • The other player scores 2 small chances in the meantime.
  • The other player scores 2 small chances. If he/she succeeds, he/she calls STOP and takes the pencil or pen and also writes down the numbers from 1 to 100 on his/her piece of paper.
  • The other person will now take small chances.
  • This continues until someone reaches 100.
  • Who of the two wins?
  • This can also be done with a shot from 3 metres or in threes with passing balls.
  • 2 x 2 different tickers
  • Complete team:
    • One person is the ticker, and must tick off everyone.
    • The other people have 2 balls at their disposal which they can pass around.
    • You may not be tagged at the moment you have the ball in your hands. D
    • When the ball is in your hands, you have to throw the ball to the person who is being tapped.
    • Of course, you are not allowed to hold the ball endlessly.
  • Make a circle shape of poles.
  • Go with 2 under a pole. One stays under the basket and the other takes balls under each pole.
  • Do this for 2 rounds and keep score.
  • After two rounds the other team does the same and keeps his score.
  • After 4 rounds the team with the total number of passed balls wins.
  • Make a circle shape of poles.
  • Go with a team of 2 under a pole. One stays under the basket and the other takes evasive balls under each pole.
  • You do this for 2 rounds and keep score.
  • After 2 rounds, the other of the team will do the same and also keep his score.
  • After 4 rounds the team with the total number of hit dodge balls wins.
  • 4 per basket possibly 8
  • Diagonal is together.
  • After a shot, catch everyone and score again in the square.
  • Slalom with balloon between the legs then score.
  • Finish the exercise by popping the balloon after each team member has scored.
