Korfball drills

• Players run/dribble around a set square. (poles/pawns, sufficient distance from each other).
• Players are given a list of commands in advance, with a corresponding number.
• The trainer calls out a number randomly, players carry out the assignment.
• You can adjust the number of missions and the missions themselves.
• Example of assignments.
  • Tapping the ground.
  • Jump in the air.
  • Sprint to the next pole.
  • 1 burpee.
  • Backwards as if you are defending until the next pole/pawn.

• Everyone in a circle or whatever.
• Pass the ball around by throwing with two hands.
• Pay special attention to the technique of throwing the ball.
• When this has been done a few times you can switch styles, so for example with one hand.
• Or perhaps above the head.
• Alternate in this.

• On the field, place x number of hats at random spots, half on his point.
• You play with 2 teams of 1 or more players.
• Party A puts the hats on the point party B puts them the other way around.
• After x minutes stop and count who has the most hats.

Objective:

• Earn a point by catching the ball over the line.

Rules:

• A party starts from behind the line with the ball.
• Intercepted ball is ball first to your own line and then to the other side for a point.
• Balls out count.
• When a point is gained, the opponent gets the ball from there.

Points of attention:

• For defending.
• Play on the side by moving on one leg.
• Play at tempo.
• Watch each other and your opponents place.

• Make a circle at the level of your head on the wall (with sidewalk chalk)
• Make the circle about the same size as a basket.
• Now stand 3 or 4 meters away from the circle.
• Now throw the ball with your left against the wall and catch it with your right hand.
• Do this for one minute.
• The ball must not bounce on the ground.
• If it is too easy, stand further away or try to throw the ball faster. If the exercise is too difficult, try to catch the ball with two hands, but still throw with one hand
  • Or stand a little closer to the wall. (Outdoors exercise)

In short: practicing various shooting variants in a fun competition form.

• Organization: per group a basket and a ball, the baskets are preferably (but not 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 assignment for the groups is: score 10 goals.
• When you have completed this assignment, the person who scored the last goal runs to the trainer to pick up the next assignment.
• Which group completed all assignments first?
• The trainer walks around, encouraging, or correcting.
• He has a piece of paper with him with a row of assignments on it.
• When someone comes to pick up the next assignment, first ask which one has just been done (this can vary considerably over time) and then hand out the next assignment.
• An example list: 10 walk-through balls, 15 penalty shots, 5 8-meter shots, 10 walk-through balls from behind the basket, 5 dodge balls next to the pole, 10 6-meter shots.
• Everything is possible of course, a lot of momentum is gained if the number of goals to be scored is kept small.
• 10 walk-through balls
• 20 small oppertunities
• 6 remote shots
• 10 penalty throws
• 1 backwards

• Practicing throwing and releasing on the short and long line.
• The declarer stands far from the basket. The archer stands in front of the box at the side of the declarer.
• The archer walks up to the declarer (the short line), receives the ball and shoots.
• The declarer becomes a shooter, the shooter walks to behind the basket, the catcher arrives at the position of the declarer, after the ball is thrown to the next declarer.

Variant:

• The shooter chooses the long line after feinting towards the short line or basket.

• Both variations can be trained with the opponent near the shooter, so that the declarer learns to judge when someone is free.
• Dose the defender. When using a defender, the 2nd declarer (who in fact does nothing) can act as a defender.
• The rotation after the exercise is: declarer becomes defender, defender becomes gunner, gunner becomes catcher and catcher becomes declarer (after a combination with a player).

• The rotation after the exercise is: declarer becomes defender, defender becomes gunner, gunner becomes catcher and catcher becomes declarer (after a combination with a player).

• Two players stand 7 metres in front of the basket and 8 metres apart.
• A player with the ball under the basket and a receiver slightly behind the basket.
• A player in front of the basket takes the through ball indicated from space, after the other player in front of the basket has received the ball.
• The ball is caught by the receiver.
  • A1 becomes A2,
  • A2 becomes A3,
  • A3 becomes A4 and
  • A4 becomes A1.

What can you see?

• The handler learns that the shooter can only take a walkthrough ball if the throw is prepared calmly, thrown in front of the shooter and the ball is placed at the right height.
• Walking pace and walking distance of the archer can be controlled by the throwing pace, ball path and ball pace.
• Learning to control problems such as timing requires a lot of repetition and sometimes adjustment of the distances used.
• The problems for the shooter, the starting position of the through ball is different because the body is turned to receive the ball, lead to unclean actions. Stay attentive to this.
• The speed of action should be increased.

Variation:

• As exercise 12, but the declarer throws the ball to a shooter who swings out to a position diagonally behind the basket.
• There is a ball through the middle where the declarer from the space in game situation must take into account two opponents, his direct opponent and the opponent of the shooter, after all he is not far from the ball line.

Variant:

• The shooter makes a feint and plays the ball through to the player under the basket who signals a through ball.

• A defender behind the post, a declarator with the ball under the basket and a number of attackers at 3 metres in front of the basket.
• The learning curve of the dodge ball is covered in these and following exercises.
• The shooter at 3 meter receives the ball, his starting position is the same as for the shot from a standing position, a small spread.
• Move the right leg slightly backwards, find the balance on that right leg by slightly pushing the left leg back.
• From this balance, shoot at the basket.
• Practise shooting on the right leg a few times, then shooting on the left leg.
• Shooter becomes catcher, catcher becomes declarer and declarer rejoins the attackers.

Variation:

• As previous exercise, but the ball is not thrown until the shooter crosses the left foot in front of the right foot (on a swerve to the right).
• The archer has to find the rhythm of the pass to the right, receiving the ball, balancing on the right leg and stretching arms and legs properly for the aimed shot.

• Foursome per basket
• Attacker, catcher, shooter, worker
• Ball starts at the declarator, plays the ball to the worker, who stands left in front of the basket near a pawn, shooter starts right in front of the basket but runs out to the pawn to the right, receives the ball and shoots.
• Changeover shooter --> receiver --> handler --> worker --> shooter

• In pairs, carry the ball across the field by throwing it into the run of the other player.
• Variation with 1 defender, with 2 defenders.
