Korfball drills

  • One ball per pair/three.
  • Players throw across until they reach a pole.
  • At the pole, both players may shoot once.
  • Then they must again throw over to another pole.
  • All groups just go right through each other.
  • Whichever two/three has 15 goals (optional) first.
  • 3 groups at pawns
  • Run to the hoop
  • Through there, through to pawns
  • walk across footbridge
  • jumping over stick
  • Finally shoot (2 attempts)
  • Whoever scores 5 times first (collect pawns)
  • One ball per pair/three.
  • Players throw across until they reach a pole.
  • At the pole, both players may shoot once.
  • Then they must again throw over to another pole.
  • All groups just go right through each other.
  • Whichever two/three has 15 goals (optional) first.
The chaos game is fun for younger children, but can also be played with older ones.

  • In the chaos game, the idea is for each child to have a ball, and 3 to 4 poles (also depending on the number of players)
  • Line up in a row.
  • Each player starts at the same pole,
  • There is a countdown and then they all start shooting,
  • If they score, they move up one pole,
  • If they don't score, they stay at the post until they do.
  • You can agree in advance whether they have to pass each pole 1, 2 or 3 times depending on the level.
  • Variation: you can use pawns to mark a circle outside of which the players must shoot,
  • They may enter it only to catch the ball.
  • Materials below are for 4 people (hat = pawn)
  • 1 person is the ticker
  • The ticker is going to try to tickle as many people as possible, ticked? Then hold each other's hands until the pendulum is very long!

Red dots are the tickers. They are not allowed to let go of each other. The blue dots are the people who have yet to be tapped.

Step 1:
Each player has their own ball and lines up in a line with other players in a row 6 meters in front of the basket.
The first player in line runs toward the basket and takes a penalty throw with a quick motion. Runs back and joins the back of the line. The next player starts.

Step 2:
Same setup as step 1. Only now a player also stands in support, slightly in front of the penalty throw spot. This one puts the ball on 1 hand. The runner approaches, grabs the ball from the hand and takes a penalty throw.

Step 3:
Same as step 2. Only the declarer throws the ball up a little.
drawing Teaching a walkthrough
  • You lay down 9 hoops or baskets in a square.
  • You divide the team into 2 groups and have them start from a number of meters.
  • Here they are given 3 pawns.
  • The children must walk to the hoops and place their given pawn in one of the hoops to get butter cheese and eggs.

  • When all the pawns have been used up they must move the pawns.
drawing Butter, cheese and eggs
  • Players line up on one side, in the middle a skipper.
  • The skipper gets to decide how the players cross over to the other side.
    • For example, in a frog jump or hopping.
  • Everyone does this including the skipper.
  • The skipper tries to tap as many children as possible.
You as the trainer start as the first skipper to set the example.

  • Players spread out in a box
  • All players, except the ticker, have a ball
  • The ticker tries to tap everyone.
  • If a player is tagged, he or she goes to the posts to score.
  • If successful, the player returns to the box.
  • If a player drops the ball, they are also out.
Variations through different ways of holding the ball.
drawing Tag with balls
  • On both sides of the basket are pawns.
  • The shooter stands in front of the basket with the ball.
  • The other players stand under the basket to duel for the rebound.
  • After each shot, one player catches the ball.
  • This player must first tap a pawn and then may catch again.
  • The shooter shoots as soon as he has the ball.
drawing Running rebound
To make the run-throughs a little more fun, we'll make it a contest!
  • You put a number of baskets in a circle with one passer on each occasion.
  • There are also more players than baskets in the middle
  • Every run through counts for 1 point
    • If you score a run-through, you take your turn
    • If you miss the follow-through, you and the server swap positions
  • The first player to score 6 points wins. Number of points to be determined on what the players can do.
variation:
  • you can do different sizes of baskets and give them a different score
    • for example an archer basket counts for 2 points
  • Step 1: Each player has their own ball and line up one after the other at 6 meters in front of the basket. Then the first in line walks toward the basket and takes a penalty throw. This is done in a smooth motion.
  • Step 2: Same setup as step 1. Only now a player also stands in support, slightly in front of the penalty throw spot. This one puts the ball on one hand. The runner approaches, grabs the ball from the hand and takes a penalty throw.
  • Step 3: Same as step 2. Only the declarer throws the ball up a little.
