Korfball drills for technique condition / strength

  • Place 4 posts in a square.
  • The whole group runs around the posts in a row. 
  • If the trainer shouts "yes", the person at the back of the row will run to the front of the row as quickly as possible. 
  • The children do this by sprinting.
  • Options:
    • The children follow each other around the posts in a row. 
    • The person at the front of the row can do what he wants, for example: heels to the back, sprinting, lifting knees etc. 
    • If the trainer shouts "yes", the person at the back of the queue gets to the front of the queue as soon as possible and can then choose what he wants to do. 
    • It has to be something else than running/jogging, it can be sprinting. 
  • Per group of 2, each player has to score.
  • When both score, move to the left to the next post, regardless of whether the two next to you have already scored. 
  • Which group will be the first group to return to his own post and score again.
  • 1 shooter stands in front of the post, distance is indicated by the trainer
  • At least 1 receiver, but it works better with 2 or more receivers
  • 2 balls per post, as soon as the shooter has shot a ball the 2nd ball will be passed to the shooter.
  • Shooter gets X minutes to score as many goals as possible
  • Goal is to keep shooting fast, but also to keep shooting well
  • Can be done several times and try to improve the number of goals each time



  • To finish the training, play a game format of 4 to 4 on 1 post.
  • Make sure you build from 4-0, and go to the 3-1 with a large triangle. 
  • A quick scoring opportunity has to be created from the big triangle. 
  • If possible, create a scoring opportunity immediately after the rebound has been captured, if this doesn't work then rebuild from 4-0.
  • THE BALL PACE IS HIGH IN THE 3-1.
drawing Small Game
  • Per group: a post and a ball, the posts are preferably (but not absolutely necessary) arranged in a circle or rectangle. 
  • The number of persons per group is less important (but all groups are about the same size).
  • The first task for the groups is to score 10 goals with a through-ball. 
  • When you have finished with that, the person who scored the last goal runs to the trainer to get the next task. Which group performed all the tasks first?
  • The trainer has a piece of paper with tasks on him.
  • When someone comes to get the next task, first ask which task has just been completed (this can vary considerably over time) and then give the next task.
  • List:
    • 5 through-balls, 
    • 5 penalty throws, 
    • Five 3-meter shots, 
    • 5 shots from 3 meters behind the post.



  • Place two posts where they usually are during a game.
  • Then place two pilons at the far left and far right on the center line. 
  • Ideally, this exercise is done with 8 people, more is possible, less than 8 doesn't work.
  • At each post or pilon two people are standing, one person under the post starts with the ball (on both sides). 
  • This person throws the ball to someone near the pilon on his right and runs after the ball. 
  • This person then throws the ball to the other post, and the second person near the pilon goes for a through-ball. 
  • Now the ball is under the post again and the round starts over again.



    Arrangement:

(Black line: throwing and running after the ball) (Black dotted line: throwing ball) (Red line is running for a through-ball)


  • through-ball-tour

train

  • Put pilons about 6 meters apart. Divide the group into 2. 
  • In the case of five, one group of 3 and a group of two. 
  • The goal is to keep the ball in the middle between the pilons at all times. 
  • As soon as a player receives the ball, the player must be at the centre of the other side. 
  • After you have passed the ball, you join the back row on the opposite side. 
  • NB: Nobody stands still and tries to see what happens at all times
    • Do not arrive too early or too late. 
    • Throwing while moving. 
    • After five minutes switch side (left hand).
  • There's a pilon 8 meters from the post.
  • At this pilon: 
    • Pilon 1, they touch the ground 10 times and then jump up and stretch out all the way. 
    • Then they sprint to post 1 and take a dodgeball on the left; shoot on one leg.
  • There is another pilon and post next to the pilon and post. 
    • The pilon is also at 8 meters from the post.
    • From post 1, they sprint to pilon 2 and press it 10 times. 
    • Then they sprint to the post and throw towards the passer under the post and he has a short chance behind the post.
  • There is another pilon and post next to the pilon and post. 
    • The pilon is also at 8 meters from the post.
    • From post 2 they sprint to pilon 3 and do 15 squats. 
    • Then they sprint to post 3 and take a through-ball. 
  • There is another pilon and post next to the pilon and post. 
    • The pilon is also 8 meters from the post.
    • From post 3 they sprint to pilon 4 and run 4 circles around the pilon. 
    • Then they sprint to post 4 and take a straight dodgeball; shooting on one leg. 


They have 10 minutes to get a total score of 20 with the whole group. If they don't get to this point there is a consequence.

  • 50 second full sprint, 
  • 10 push-ups, 
  • 10 crunches, 
  • 10 leg raises,

  • Swap when the attackers have scored 3 times or if they miss off or if it's intercepted by the defence. 
  • then change roles. 
  • If the scoring is too easy, you provide a second defender or the attackers must pass first before shooting again.
  • If the shooting is too difficult, provide an extra post or the defender must keep one hand on his back or the attackers may run with the ball.
