Korfball drills for technique rebound

  • Everyone stands at his/her pawn 5 meters from the basket.
  • One player has the ball and shoots.
  • The others engage in the rebound duel-the shooter, too, if necessary.
  • Whoever has the ball then gets to shoot.
  • Who has X goals first?
drawing Rebound - running duel
  • With 3-pairs at a basket.
  • 1 shooter and 2 catchers.
  • The receivers compete with each other to be the first to catch the ball.
  • Whoever catches the ball first 3 times gets to switch with the shooter.
  • The shooter stands at 6 / 7 meters
  • The catcher stands near the post.
  • We switch positions when the ball has been caught 3 times in a row without the ball touching the ground.
In this exercise it is hugely important;
  • That the rebounder also continuously drops the ball quickly because 1 attacker starts at 6 or 7 meters with a dodge ball and immediately comes in for the through ball.
  • Then a shot behind the post and then a shot to the side.
drawing Shooting from motion
  • Player A starts with the ball 2.5 meters diagonally in front of the post. Player B also stands 2.5 meters diagonally in front of the post.
  • Player A throws the ball to player B and player B throws it back. Thus they bring the ball up to about 8 meters in front of the post.
  • From there, player B starts for a through ball from the space indicated by player A.
  • However, instead of player B taking the through ball, it now enters the declarer and player A comes in for a clearance ball. Player B catches the ball.
A variation on this:
Only throw the ball when player B runs next to/behind the basket and player B immediately makes a shot. Player A immediately runs in to catch the ball.

There are more variations on this, such as:
  • Most goals in a time frame of, say, 10 minutes
  • Who scores 10 goals first
  • Make it more difficult by deducting a point for each ball on the ground.
  • Possibly with a 3rd player to rotate and keep a slightly slower pace.

drawing Shooting from space
  • Player A starts with the ball 2.5 meters diagonally in front of the post.
  • Player B also stands 2.5 meters diagonally in front of the post.
  • Player A throws the ball to player B and player B throws it back.
  • Thus they bring the ball up to about 8 meters in front of the post.
  • From there player B starts for a through ball from the space indicated by player A.
  • Player A also runs in after it to catch the ball before it bounces on the ground.
Variations:
- Most goals in a 10-minute time frame.
- Whoever gets to 10 goals first.
- Make it harder by taking a point off every ball on the ground.
- Possibly with a 3rd person there to rotate through and keep a slightly slower pace.
drawing Walk-through ball from space
  1. the back player cuts in to the support as the ball enters the field and gets it played.
  2. the passer simultaneously runs across the support to the rebound and takes over.
  3. the support passes the ball to the diagonal player in the break and takes the shot
  4. If that is not successful, the ball can be passed to the outgoing first rebounder
At that point, there can be doubles/ breakthroughs from both the first and second players and you get opportunities again if the then standing rebounder steps out again or the earlier support makes an action without the ball.
drawing Attack variations in the 3-1
  • Blue player with ball plays the ball to outrunning player under the post.
  • Then this one runs with it himself, gets the ball back and shoots.
  • The front player goes to the back and the back player to the front.
  • The red player in the diagonal catches and plays to red in front of the basket.
  • This one runs out, gets the ball back and plays back to the running red player, this one shoots and the blue player catches.
  • Again, the players switch positions.
Which pair scores 10x first?
drawing Dodge shot with pairs
Organization:
Three players per post.
1 player with ball diagonally in front of the basket at 7 meters.
The other player is also diagonally in front of the post.

  • The player under the basket pulls away making the player with ball the middle player.
    • Gets the ball thrown to him from the player in front of the basket. If the arrangement is good, he thus receives the ball a little diagonally.
    • This player runs to the post for the catch -rebound-.
    • The player in front of the basket comes next to it and gets the ball.
    • And comes to shot. Remember to turn in well to the basket with the hips.
      We score 10x to the left and 10x to the right.
    • After the shot, the ball is played out to the first out runner, the catcher now runs out and play begins again.

  • Same as above
    • Only now the player who threw the ball in front of the basket comes next to it.
    • This one does not get the ball but cuts inside and makes a through ball from space without the ball.
      10x left and 10x right
    • Catches the ball himself and plays it to the first runner, the catcher now runs out and the game starts again.
  • This exercise is designed to let the players choose for themselves what they want to improve on.
  • Which (improvement) goal, which they have set for themselves, do they want to improve here.
  • As a trainer you can steer this by guiding the choice.
  • For example: the exercise must have something to do with passing/shooting/attacking/looking etc.
  1. Number 1 starts at about 4/5 meters in front of the basket, this is the shooter.
  2. Number 2 starts under the basket, this is the rebounder who is going to block.
  3. Number 3 starts in the space around the basket and will also try to rebound, but then from space.
  4. Number 2 is going to try to block number 3.
  5. The first player to win 3 rebounds, can start shooting.
  • Around the basket are 4 hats at about 3 meters.
  • At 5 metres there are 4 hats of another colour.
  • In the small square stands the rebounder and outside the big square stands the shooter.
  • The shooter shoots from outside the lines and must hit 5 times.
  • The winner is the one who scores the 5 goals in the least number of turns.
  • The winner then plays against another winner and the loser against another loser.
