Korfball drills for technique attack / score

• You have an attacker at 5 meters in front of the basket who is going to shoot on the move.
• Underneath the basket there is a declarator and a rebounder.
• After having played the ball, the attacker leaves the room.
• The attacker shoots as soon as he has the ball and runs immediately to catch it himself.
• The attacker only has a point when he catches the ball himself.
• The rebounder has a point when he catches the ball.

In teams of four, two attackers and two defenders.

• Player 1 with the ball throws it to player 2.
• Player 1 comes next to player 2
• Player 2 throws the ball back and runs deep
• Player 1 throws the ball to player 2
• Player 1 goes right in for catch and player 2 shoots.

In short: exercise with the emphasis on turning away from the opponent.

Organisation: Each team of five or four players has a ball and an area of about 20 by 20 metres. The players are numbered.

a ) Number 1 is attacking, number 2 is defending and numbers 3, 4 and 5 are playing together with the attacking player. Everybody can move freely through the area. The attacker always gets the ball back from numbers 3, 4 and 5. The defender's task is to intercept the ball. Can the attacker manage not to lose the ball a single time? The ball may not fall on the ground either! After about 30 seconds the players change tasks: number 3 attacks, number 4 defends, etc. until everyone has been attacker and defender once.

If necessary, extend the task next time:

b ) As a., but give the instruction that the attacker always has to turn away from her defender: that way she can both pass and receive the ball back easily. I call this: 'cutting and turning', others call it 'keeping your opponent on your back'.

c ) As a., but now the team-mates 3, 4 and 5 stand still in a triangle with a distance of about 15 metres. This makes it more difficult for the attacker.

d ) It becomes even more difficult if the attacker is instructed to pass the ball to the other players in a fixed order. She now has to run in circles, so that the defender knows exactly where the ball will go, or where the attacker wants to run to. Many balls will now be intercepted, or at least touched.

e ) Again part c. Show that the attacker has an easier time of it now because of the freedom of choice By turning away from her opponent, she creates a sea of space for herself!

• You have two mats in the room, two teams have to defend each a mat of their own.
• But before they can attack, one of the two teams must complete a task. The team that finishes first gets the ball and may attack.
• The other teams may only move once their team member has also completed the task.
• You are not allowed to run with the ball, so you have to pass.

• you have three kids per post.
  • 1 is the attacker,
  • 1 is the defender and
  • 1 is the attacker, 1 is the defender and 1 is the attacker/catcher.
• the attacker must try to score and the defender must prevent this.
• Change when the attacker has scored

• 4 near the basket. Play around. Cut with the ball.
• make sure there is always someone at the back.
• turn around to the back 7 score/make

• Per basket 4 players, 2 attackers, 2 defenders.
• They compete with each other and the rules are changed a little bit each time.
  1. The attackers must score 2x. Intercept the defenders 2x the ball then there is exchanged
  2. same as above but now there may only be shot if there is at least 1x overplayed
  3. same as 1 but only allowed to score with an extended ball
  4. Defensive shooting is allowed, the catch is important to be able to continue attacking.
• etc. The trainer of each basket can make additions to these exercises, passing on these variations quickly is a must for concentration.

• Make 2 teams of 4 players.
• Hats!
• Gather between the 4 baskets.
• The attacking team gets the ball and can choose which basket to attack.
• This is to encourage them to look for free space.
• The other team follows, intercepts the ball?
• Then they choose. Do this the first 5 minutes.
• Then another variant.
• Divide all players over 4 teams. Each team gets its own basket and must defend it.
• If one team has the ball, they choose where to attack.

• 1 declarer throws the ball to the person in front of the basket then he takes a shot if the ball is caught under the basket he then goes inside and takes a through ball finally he then takes a short chance.
• Point count:
  • Shot counts 2x
  • Walkthrough counts 1x
  • Short chance counts 1x
• 5min long and then look per basket who has the most points = 2 times

• 5 men per basket.
• Players A start as attackers in front of the basket.
• Players V start as defenders, 1.5 arms' length away from the shooter.
• Player C starts with the ball in the box.
• Attacker A must try to score through the 1 on 1 duel.
• It does not matter how (distance, evasion, dlb).
• When the attacker has the ball in his hands, the defender has to close the gap. D
• he defender is not allowed to tap or block balls.
• The V must show that she is with the attacker, but must allow the shot.
• This can be done by the defender placing her hand just above the attacker's shoulder.
• After 1 minute, the V has to change position.

• Two baskets facing each other.
• Under each basket, a declarer with the ball.
• The players in the middle, divided in 2 groups, line up opposite each other.
• So that they can see both baskets. One row is attack, the other is defender.
• The first two players in the row duel each other.
• The duel starts when one of the attackers lets the ball bounce once.
• The attacker can decide which basket to attack to.
• The point of this exercise is to try to get free and score.
• After one turn the attacker joins behind the defenders and the defender joins behind the attackers.
• In between the attackers change.
