Korfball drills

Pass balls are taken, but this must be done with one hand. First the 'good' hand, then the 'bad' hand.

Trio at the basket. A passer, defender and attacker. The defender starts with a light pressure and allows the shot. The attacker moves on the crossbar and shoots. When scoring twice, the attacker switches functions. The pressure from the defender can be increased further and further until there is a 1v1 situation in which the attacker can only shoot.

Player A shoots from in front of the basket. Player B catches it. Player B throws out to player A, moves away from the basket (direction doesn't matter), gets the ball from A and shoots. Player A catches the shot, passes to player B, moves away, gets the ball and shoots, player B catches, etc...

  • 10 shots on the wide line
  • 15 through balls
  • 15 pull-aways

Place a number of cones/caps 2 to 3 metres apart. Make two rows of cones and divide the team into two groups.

The exercise is quite simple. Two pawns spinning and one pawn in defensive position back. Then repeat the exercise again, so two pawns forward and one pawn back.

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 are not allowed to be tapped when you have the ball in your hands. So if the ticker is running to someone, you have to throw the ball to this player. Of course you are not allowed to hold on to the ball endlessly.

Exercise for the quick step, reaction time and coordination. Be the trainer in the middle with the children in a circle around you. For example 5 children, 4 x basket and 4 x ball.

Children walk around you in a circle in the direction that you indicate, you can also suddenly change direction for variety. Then dribble on the spot. When the trainer calls YES, the kids have to grab a ball as fast as possible and try to score on the basket. 1 child has no ball and is out. Then 3 balls and again, until there is a winner.

The children will practice taking free balls and penalty throws. The children stand in pairs near a basket. They take turns to take a penalty throw and take 6 shots in total. At the end they write on their paper how many they hit.

The children stand in pairs near a basket. A distance is given where the pylon must stand. The children shoot depending on their age a certain time and count the goals. Who scores the most goals?

This game is played with the whole group.
The group stands behind each other, behind a pawn at 5 meters distance from the pole.
There are two balls, the one in front shoots the ball. The person behind it shoots the ball and if he scores before the person in front of him scores, the person in front of him goes out and so on.

Explain who should stand where, when you get a free ball and show how to do it. Do this on a basket so that everyone can see how to do it and how not to do it

Make pairs and let them stand opposite each other at +/- 5 meters.
