Korfball drills for technique attack / score

Building up to offensive positions to fall back on when creativity fails for a while.
Blue = static starting positions

Setup:
  • Pass deep from front field
  • Pass laterally into backfield + rebound run in
  • Pass deep from backfield + run in support
  • Pass passed to incoming support + attacking action by both strikers
  • Support plays free striker + runs out into space
  • Offloaded striker shoots
Once static has been mastered, move to dynamic. Agreement is that support follows immediately after rebound. The rest can be filled in freely with the variations below:
  • Support runs around the block instead of cutting into it.
  • Support does not shoot, but plays shadow striker to shoot. 7a.
  • Offloaded striker does not shoot, but plays run-out striker to shoot. 7b.
  • Played run-out support does not shoot, but shadow striker runs into support and takes over function + attack action strikers and shoot. 8.
  • Played run-out support does not shoot, striker runs into support and takes over function + shadow striker connects with run-out support + strikers attack action and shoot. 9.
  • ... innumerable variations to think of

drawing System building attack - foundation to fall back on
  • Player 3 picks up the ball and throws it to player 1.
  • Player 3 runs to the post.
  • Player 4 goes over block, player 3 to the pointer.
  • Player 1 throws the ball to player 2.

drawing System building attack - foundation to fall back on
  • Setup is that someone stands under the post and the 3 others stand in a triangle relative to the post.
  • The player with the ball plays deep or wide and takes the pole position.
  • If the ball is played deep, the player at the post moves backwards. If the ball is played wide, the player on that side runs with it.
  • If the ball goes deep, the forward player takes the filling-in player's spot. If the ball goes wide, the back player takes that spot.
  • The player who fills in from the side takes the shot. The caught ball goes back to the middle player and play can begin again.
  • If everything is filled in on time, you have the catch out of space. If the intended shooter is blocked with a jump, he/she has 2 points of attack for a breakthrough.
  1. Score 10x via moving to the right.
  2. score 10x via moving to the left.
  3. score 10x via a through ball on a flying defender.
drawing Always 2 supports
  • For each box, the focus is on one-on-one attacks.
  • There are two attackers, one attacker and one defender.
  • Each attacker gets 1.5 minutes to attack full time.
Rules:
  • Only one throw on the support under the post is allowed per shot attempt.
  • Especially offer support from the side.
  • Walk-through and shot are both allowed.
  • 3 players in front.
  • 1 player at tackle/catch position.
  • In front, one throw is made to each side.
  • As soon as the ball is back to the middle person, the two outside ones run to the player in catching position.
  • The player in catching position pulls away, but only when the player in front actually reaches the defender of the player under the post.
drawing Tosti
  • There are 4 pawns in a square well around the basket.
  • There is already someone imaginary standing as a rebound, so there are 3 men in the front field at a pawn.
  • The players must always connect so that there is someone playable on 2 sides.
  • After 3/4 passes someone is sent deep and the 3rd person comes in front of the rebound and a through ball is taken.
  • Player 1 keeps moving in the meantime and gets the ball to shoot.
drawing 3-1 to chance
2 players at 1 basket. The goal of the game is to create chances for attack.

  • Player 1 stands a few feet in front of the basket, Player 2 stands a few feet next to the basket.
  • Player 1 throws the ball to Player 2 and immediately runs in for the pointer.
  • Player 2 throws the ball to Player 1 and immediately comes in for a pass.
Multiple variations possible.
After each exercise do a quick double and switch positions.
drawing Cutting inside for walk-through
Setup:
  • Player 2 stands with the ball behind player 1 at 6 meters in front of the basket.
  • Player 2 throws the ball over player 1 into space.
  • Player 1 grabs the ball, now player 2 must move to the side of player 1 to receive the pass.
