Korfball drills

  • Ball is played from the support to the left or right, running out to the playing side.
  • The outrunner gets the ball back and plays the broken through player from the other side.
  • If you have a player in the back of the field, they also break through at the moment the ball is played in from the front.

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.

  • 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.

Preparation:
  • Make groups of 2 players.
  • Player 1 gets 2 -e.g. red- hoops.
  • Player 2 gets 2 -e.g. yellow- hoops.
  • Put these 4 hoops in a square.
  • Per duo you need 1 ball.
Game explanation:
  • Player 1 bumps the ball into a hoop of his own color.
  • Player 2 catches the ball before it collides again and throws it another one into a hoop of his color.
    • You get a point if the other player cannot catch your ball.
    • The other player gets a point if the ball does not land in the correct hoop.
Objective:
  • Try to score as many points as possible.
Place 2 poles directly opposite each other.
Under each basket one player with ball and one player without.

  • The player without ball runs clockwise to the cone halfway diagonally across the court.
  • The ball is passed along in the run and passed to the declarer under the other basket.
  • Walk-through ball follows, self-catching.
  • Exercise repeats.

  • Players without ball run straight at each other. After a jump they go sideways to the cone.
  • There they continue without a pointer to the swerve on the other basket.
  • The shot is followed by a follow-through that is self-caught. Then you switch.

  • The player in give-up throws the ball away with backspin. The player without the ball runs to the ball and tries to catch it for the 2nd bounce. Make sure the ball is not thrown too far.
  • After catching, turn and pass to the supplied player, followed by a swerve with a shot.
  • Then run for a through ball at the other post, catching yourself.
drawing Exercise attack
  • Hat at 6 meters in front of the basket and a hat diagonally next to the basket at 5 meters.
  • Play the ball forward to the player at the hat.
  • The player puts the thrown ball on the ground and runs to the other hat and then to the basket.
Score together 10 times left and 10 times right.
  • The lead lines they the same as in picture, only the runaway player makes a swerve ball in depth. Step away to the back.
Score 10x counterclockwise and 10x clockwise.
  • The closing play is for the swerve to continue into the depths.
  • The third player under the pawl steps out, gets the ball and hands it off for a through ball.
  • Score 10x where the declarer steps out on the left and score 10x where the declarer steps out on the right.
Pay attention to which hand the declarer leads with.

The focus in this exercise is on finishing chances and timing in the rebound.
If you do not score goals quickly enough, you will lose the game.

  • Goal is to score 5 goals.
  • The rebounder under the basket plays against the shooter in front of the basket. Which of the two players scores 5 goals first?
  • The rebounder starts as a pointer such that the shooter has to shoot on the move outside the 4 meters.
  • The rebounder may shoot only if he or she catches the ball in one shot without scoring a goal.
  • If one player scores 5 goals this player is the winner and all other groups stop play
  • This basket is the winner's basket, the basket furthest from this is the loser's basket
  • Then per pole each winner -the player who scored the most of the 5 points- moves 1 place towards the winner's basket.
  • The loser -the player who scored the least of the 5 points- moves 1 place in the opposite direction, towards the loser's basket
  • In case of a tie, you take penalty throws; the player who misses first is the loser.
  • On a tennis court, you will play in 2 squares 2 against 2.
  • Both courts are attacking.
  • When intercepting, the ball must first go to the other side.
  • Play with 2 teams of 2.
  • Both squares are attacking squares.
  • On interception, the ball must go to the other side first.

  • Each exercise is a number; they can use this number in the code.
  • When they have done 4 exercises, they pass this as the code, in the order in which they did the exercises.
  • The trainer then indicates how many the players got right and how many are in, but not in the right place.
Exercises:
  • 8 walk-through balls
  • 5 rounds of running ladders pp
  • 2 laps around the whole field
