Korfball drills for technique general

In short: exercises in catching balls that bounce or roll at the right moment. This is to learn how to catch a ball as quickly as possible.

Organisation: One ball per pair.

  • The numbers 1 and 2 of each pair stand next to each other.
  • The trainer throws, rolls or bounces the ball a few metres away.
  • Number 1 and 2 have to get the ball, pick it up and pass it back as fast as possible.
  • The one who does this the fastest wins.
  • After 5 times change.
  • The remaining players take shots, free balls and penalty shots in the meantime
  • while the other two are busy with the reflex training.



  • Stand in a circle around a basket (4 children).
  • The child in front of the basket shoots the ball towards the basket, the other three girls must try to catch the ball.
  • The child who catches the ball may then shoot.
  • Goal: practise shooting and catching.

The team divides into two groups. Then the two groups go on to score a series of all 5.

This includes:

  • 5x Drive-throughs
  • 5x shots
  • 5x free balls
  • 5x penalty shootings
  • 5x small chances
  • two teams side by side,
  • whoever gets 5 goals first gets to vote the other one off
  • 4 squares under the basket.
  • Stimulate spatial insight.
  • Try to get them to play over with 4 squares under the basket.
  • Also use defenders.
  • You are not allowed to leave your square unless you swap with someone from another square.

Games with calling as goal and shot clock where there must be a shot within a certain time and also important that one may only hold the ball for up to 4 seconds

  • 1 declarer throws the ball to the person in front of the basket then he takes a shot when the ball is caught under the basket he then goes inside and takes a walkthrough ball finally he takes a short chance afterwards.


Important: Tightplacement and quick release so that the ball can be walked on immediately.

  • Point count:
    • Shot counts 2x
    • Walkthrough counts 1x
    • Short chance counts 1x
  • player 1 and 2 stand opposite each other at about 3 meters.
  • player 3 stands about 3 meters next to player 2.
  • player 1 throws the ball with one hand to player 2.
  • Player 3 must try to get the ball out of the way.
  • Now it is important to throw well and on time otherwise player 3/defender can take the ball.
  • 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
  • 3 min long and then look per basket who has the most points
  • At pawn 1
    • touch the groundTouch the ground, jump up and stretch all the way. We do this 5 times.
    • RUN TO THE FIRST POLE.
  • Pole 1
    • Then you take a dodge at pole 1.
    • RUN TO POLE 2.
  • Pole 2
    • 5 sit ups.
    • RUN TO POLE 2.
  • Pole 2
    • run through the pole 2.
  • Pole 3
    • 5 squads.
  • Pole 3
    • Score 1 small chance
    • We do this 3 times, then change under the pole

In short: nice shooting exercise with a lot of running.

Organisation:

  • The baskets are placed in a circle.
  • At each basket stands a server with a ball.
  • The rest of the players stand in the middle of the circle (the middle must be clearly recognisable.
  • There is often a circle in the hall,
    • A pylon must be placed on the field).
    • The number of baskets is very precise:
    • Aim for 2 baskets per 5 players.


Execution

  • The players in the centre circle get the assignment to make a run through ball on one of the baskets,
  • It does not matter which one.
  • As there are more players in the circle than there are free baskets, it is important to find a free basket quickly.
  • When you are not quick enough, you have to wait a bit.
  • And when Johnny is already on his way to a basket, but is passed at the last moment by Marietje, who is running faster, Johnny has to go back to the centre circle and try again from there.
  • Everyone catches his own ball.
  • After passing the ball, each player runs through the centre circle or around the pylon to find a free basket again as soon as possible.
  • you have 4 korfballs and
  • under each basket there is one person with the ball.
  • The rest of the players stand by the pawn in the middle of the field.
  • the person who is standing by the pawn searches for a free basket and is going to take a walk-in ball and catches his own ball.
  • the person standing by the pawn searches for a free basket and is going to take a run-in ball and catches his own ball. the person standing under the basket walks to the pawn and then searches for a free basket and is going to take a run-in ball as well.
