Korfball drills for technique running in shot

• Set up six baskets in two lines of three.
• Under each basket, a fixed declarer.
• The other players stand on the sideline across the first line of baskets.
• The other players take a walk-through ball on the side of the first three baskets.
• Followed by a ball in front of, behind and in front of the basket on the next baskets. (See diagram).
• Then all players do the same round, reversed and back again, after which they exchange players and do another round back and forth.

• Indicator stands next to the post.
• Taker and defender at about 8 metres.
• As soon as the player takes off, the defender follows and tries to defend.
• The attacker passes the ball and the ball is passed to the defender.
• Change function every time.
• Score 20 times.

• You need 2 baskets per 4 or 5 persons.
• The poles are opposite each other.
• There are fixed helpers with the ball.
• You take the run-through on the post opposite the post where you started.
  • When you have made the run through, you start again from the pole where you just made the run through and continue to the other side.
• Change after x goals or after so many minutes.
• Then the passers take the runners and the takers pass to the other players.
  • Pay attention to the passing and the technique of the runthrough.
• If necessary, put a cap or a pawn where the children should get the ball.

• You need a 3 or 4 team to defend the run through.
• One person under the basket with the ball and possibly also a catcher.
• In front of the basket, an attacker and a defender, at about 5-6 meters from the basket (at far shot distance).
• The person under the basket (attacker) has the ball.
• The attacker runs sideways (right or left) and gets the ball from the person in charge.
• The attacker throws the ball back to the attacker and goes in a straight line to the basket and makes a run through or in out shot (if the run through is too well defended).
• The defender stays in the right place to prevent the run through.
• Point of attention defense:
  • Stay close to the attacker
  • Keep your knees bent
  • Do not turn around when the ball is thrown
  • Do not run after your opponent

• Player 1 starts at a few meters from the basket to start a distance shot.
• The ball is caught by player 2 and player 1 makes a run through.
• The ball is caught again and player 1 makes a short chance from behind the basket.
• If none of these 3 chances are seated, the player must do it again.
• If one of the 3 chances is placed, the next player may try again.

• Set up six baskets.
• Under each basket, a regular player with the ball, the other players at the centre spot.

1. Other players make two through balls on each basket. After the round, change leaders, then another round.
2. On each basket, make one fly ball to the left. After the round, change helpers, then another round.
3. On each basket, make one fly ball to the right. After the round, switch players, then another round.

• 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).

• 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.

• 1 forward
• 1 defender
• 1 attacker

• Attacker with his back to the basket.
• Defender in front.
• As soon as attacker picks up the ball and passes to attacker, both may run.
• Attacker takes ball and defender does his best to defend.

• 1 attacker
• 1 defender
• 1 attacker

• Attacker and defender walk towards each other.
• Offender decides when to go for the walkthrough and the defender goes after him.
