Korfball drills for technique defense

You will play matches with even numbers, but instead of earning points by scoring, you can also earn points by catching the ball.

• Goal is worth 1 point
• Catching the ball after a shot(rebounding) 2 points

• A goal may only be scored by means of a deep line (run through from deep) or by what was trained in the previous drill.

• There are 3 posts placed in a triangle, pointing to the centre of the triangle.
• The defenders try to prevent the attacker from scoring.
• Do this until the attacker has scored twice or 1 minute has passed and then turn around.

Objective:

• To teach the children to follow their direct opponent at all times,
• The defender always remains between the post and the girl.

Organisation:

• The children stand in pairs near a basket.
• One of the two is defender, the other attacker.
• The attacker makes movements around the basket (towards, away from, left, right, etc.).
• The defender constantly makes sure she stays in the right place between the basket and the girl.
• After a few minutes, switch. Changing pairs.

• One rebounder, one defender and one attacker.
• 30 sec attacks...if attacker can score, he becomes rebounder at the next post.
• If not, he becomes the defender.
• Rebounder becomes attacker all the time...

• In a square there are 3 defending players and 1 attacking player.
• The attacker tries to get a pylon, the defenders try to prevent that by working together.
• So the defenders will have to move a lot between the pylons to beat the attacker.
• Everyone is 3x attacker.
• Always after 1 round with the four of you evaluate how best to get the attacker out of position.

• There is not 1 good strategy.
• Which agreements do you make?
• How smart is the attacker?
• Do you dare to let go?

• All line up with your back to the middle.
• In defensive stance to the opposite side.
• Back and forth 2x.
• Then another time and alternate with other leg in front.

• In pairs.
• One player is the runner and the other is the defender.
• Slow pace where runner runs forward and defender runs backward in defensive stance.
• Pick up pace.
• With feints.

• Mention in advance that they should play around and then set up a support and rebound.
• Also mention that the support stays until a follow-through or shot comes. Because if the ball is spent for a shot and the defender gets to it in time then the ball can be played back on the support.
  • The support remains until the defender gets in front of the support to avoid the returning pass
• Thus, the defenders must learn that after a spent pass is returned immediately in front of the support.

• Children learning to walk lines

• Attacker and defender ready for the post. Offender under the post with ball.
• Defender moves up post.
• Play 1 x 1 until attacker has scored 1 time. Defender always tries to be there.
• The post of the defender who got the goal against gets penalty.
• Defender goes back to own post.
• Passing

• Player blue must get the ball to one of the 4 pawns.
• Player red must pre-defend.
• Player red must close ball line.

• Half of the group is attacker, blue, and the other half is defender, red.
• The attackers stand on the sideline and the defenders stand about 1 meter in front of them.
• The attackers run forward and try to get past the defender at half speed.
• The defender follows the attacker's every move while running backwards with them.
• Once across, the attackers and defenders switch roles.
