Korfball drills for technique running in shot

  • 3 persons per basket.
  • The players take turns in catching and marking the ball.
  • The runners start at the pawn at about 15 metres. They calmly walk towards the basket and at about 2,5 meter distance they get the ball and pass it underhand.
  • The handler catches the ball, gives it to the next handler and walks to the cone.
  • When necessary they get tips and help.

Indicate from the space

Keep space under the basket free and pass to the player from various positions in the field. First without and then with a defender.

Pay attention to good placement of the ball!

Setup: O v * * = pilon O = basket

* v O

[Make
sure that they first pass the ball before passing it.

Distance between the pile and the basket is +/- 10 meterAt
each pile there is one person with the ballAt
+/- 4 meter from the pile there is one defender.

The player tries to pass the ball. By changing tempo she tries to pass the defender first. Defender follows, but lets her pass. From pole 1 the attacker moves on to pole 2 and makes a new attempt at pole 2.

Variation:

  • 2 attackers at the same time
  • When scoring twice, switch to pass.
  • Defender goes for preventing shot.
  • Attacker can choose for walk through, dodge and/or distance with step behind
    • adjust time
    • multiple posts/pillars/players

Let's get used to the field.

Three poles in a triangle. Three running players. From the pillon you push. Remember technique.

1) take a walk through ball. Scoring three is substitution2
) Take neighbourhood ball. Scoring one is exchanging3)
Walk through ball overhead4
) Walk through ball backwards5
) score 10 together.



Setup: O v * * = pilon O = basket

* v O


  • Distance between the pile and the basket is +/- 10 meter.
  • At every pole stands 1 attacker with the ball.
  • At 1 meter from the pylon stands 1 defender (you must be able to touch the attacker by the shoulder).
  • The player tries to pass the ball.
  • By changing tempo she tries to pass the defender first.
  • Defender follows, but lets her pass.
  • From pole 1 the attacker continues to pole 2 and makes a new attempt at pole 2.
  • We do this for 1 to 2 minutes per person.


Variation:

  • 2 attackers at the same time
  • When scoring twice, switch to pass.
  • Defender goes for preventing shot. Attackers can choose for walk through ball, dodge and/or distance with step behind.
  • adjust time
  • Multiple posts/pillars/players.
  • 1 attacker throws the ball to the person in front of the basket then he shoots the ball when he catches the ball under the basket he then goes inside and takes a walkthrough ball finally he takes a short chance.
  • Point count:
    • Shot counts 2x
    • Walkthrough counts 1x
    • Short chance counts 1x
  • You can play this like this, for example, who is first to the 20 or
  • 1min long and then look per basket who has the most points

! Form groups of 2 people per basket

Each group receives three cards. The cards are shuffled beforehand and the numbers 2 to 5 are taken from the packet. With the three cards they receive, the groups must get as close as possible to 31. The values of the numbers and pictures are shown below:

  • Six = six
  • Seven = seven
  • Eight = eight
  • Nine = nine
  • Ten is ten
  • Farmer = ten
  • Wife = ten
  • King = ten
  • Ace = eleven

So nine + jack + queen = 29 points or ace + jack + queen = 31, but you can also get jack + jack = 30.5

When the players have completed a series, they may exchange one of their received cards for a new one, to get closer to 31. The trainer sets a timer and says stop when it rings. The team that is closest to 31 wins.

Series:

  1. Pass balls: three goals in a row.
  2. Short chance: four goals in total.
  3. Distance shot behind the basket: two goals in a row (4/5 meters).
  4. Penalty throw: three goals in a row.
  5. Around the basket: four goals, one on each side of the basket (3 metres).

! Make 3 groups and let the players divide into person 1, 2 and 3. After two rounds, switch one person by.

1.

Form 3 teams near the basket. Person 1 stands 6 metres in front of the basket near the pawn, person 2 stands 6 metres behind the basket near the pawn. Person 3 stands under the basket as catcher. Person 1 starts with e.g. a pass, then goes back to the pawn. Person 2 takes a passing ball in the meantime, as person 3 has caught the ball. This is how you do all the exercises.

Exercises:

  • Pass ball
  • Pass ball right
  • Dodge ball left
  • Diverting ball past the basket

2.

The three teams are now positioned differently. The pawns are moved to the side of the basket, where a player stands near both pawns. The other player stands in front of the pawn at 4 metres from the basket. Person 1 and 2 stand near the cones and are playable as a passer. Player 3 stands near the pawns and determines his action. Player 3 must pass at least 2 times before he can take a shot. The shooter stays in front of the basket with the shot.

  • First take the shot while person 3 is walking towards the ball, later only walk away from the ball and take the shot.
  • If necessary, repeat behind the basket.

3 teams change 1 for 1

# 4 teams swap 2 by 2

Setup: O v * * = pilon O = basket

* v O

Distance between the pile and the basket is +/- 10 meter.

At every pole stands 1 forward with ball

At +/- 4 meter from the pool stands 1 defender.

The player tries to make a through ball. By changing speed, she tries to pass the defender first. Defender follows, but lets her pass. From pole 1 the attacker moves on to pole 2 and makes a new attempt at pole 2.

Variation:

- 2 attackers at the same time

- When scoring twice, switch to pass.

- Defender goes for preventing shot. Attackers can choose for walk through ball, dodge and/or distance with step behind.

- adjust time

- Multiple posts/pillars/players.

  • Bringing the ball up from the defensive box to the attacking box.
  • Set up a quick attack.
  • Good passing.
  • Standard passes.
  • Shots from certain distances.

We are going to explain again what exactly the rules and progression of 8x8 is!
- 2x 12,5 minutes and then switch from offense to defense or from defense to offense.
- Stay in your section and do not run to the attack or defence.

Make two sections and let the leader Kyra do her job. Just like a match. And then explain some extra things about being a captain.
- Go to the referee after the match to thank him for blowing the whistle.
- After the whistle, walk to the halfway line and shake hands with the other captain, the coach of the other team and the referee and wish them a good game.
- Choose the side to attack.
- How to warm up and shoot.
- Steering the team to set everything up.



And finally we will play a game!

Two cones and a pole in a triangle.


  • Player 1 throws to player 2 opposite him and runs after the ball.
  • Player 2 throws the ball to player 3 at the pole.
  • Player 2 takes a runthrough.
