Korfball drills
- 4 v 4 on badminton court with post in the middle

- 4 v 4 on badminton court with post in middle
- Practice the passing exercise but now have choice of which way, still need to make contact first
- If you have a shot, take it, if not pass to someone else, include long diagonal, emphasise contact first
- If there is a shot going up and you are nearest, get to post to collect, shooter to follow shot in
- After a shot, reset and go again, swap roles after three shots or five minutes which ever comes first
- Timing of pass - do not go straight to the end, need to build this up one piece at a time, several moving parts to master individually
- Make contact, step out, pass into space, receiver watches and moves to receive at last moment. Defenders remain static, but arms in motion. Reset and pass back the other way. After two minutes swap attackers and defenders, Are you getting better at timing reception of pass?
- Repeat exercise but now defenders lose use of arms but can move bodies to make this more of a challenge, same reset and repeat and change after two minutes
- Final variation, defenders now try to stop pass and stop reception, same reset and repeat and change after two minutes

Pairs at a basket,
2 pawns at 4 meters in front of the basket with 3/4 meters between them.
- Player 1 starts to the left of the basket and jumps back and forth OVER the pawn.
- Runs to the other pawn and does the same thing there.
Next:
- Make dodge ball in front of the shot
- Or make a through ball
- Or cut around the basket for small chance
After each shot, the person performs the exercise at the pawns again.
Variation:
Jumping over the pawns can also be replaced with x number of squats, lunges, burpees etc.

- Pairs at a basket
- 2 pawns in front of basket at 4 meters with 3 meters between them.
- Player 1 starts: 30 seconds tapping pawn with hand, left and right.
- After the 30 seconds calmly take 3 shots.
- Repeat this 3 times.
- Player must remember how many shots he has scored out of 9 goal attempts.
- After this, player 2 does exactly the same thing.
- There are 4 baskets in each corner of the court.
- Under each basket is a declarer.
- The rest of the players stand in the middle.
- From there they run with a sprint to a basket and take a go-around.
- With the whole team, they score 20!
- Players stand in a large circle.
- The ball must always be passed to the neighbor.
- The direction of passing can be clockwise or counterclockwise.
- More and more balls are added.
- When the ball hits the ground, players must walk to the edge of the field and back again before being allowed to continue.
- The ball must be thrown with the left hand to the left and with the right hand to the right.
- If it is too easy, one-handed catching is possible if necessary.
With 4 players:
- Everyone stands 5 meters from the basket at a cone. Players forming a team put themselves in the diagonal.
- One player has the ball and shoots.
- The others engage in the rebound duel-the shooter too, if necessary.
- Whoever has the ball gets to attack as a team.
- Maximum of 2 chances.
With 3 players:
- The player who catches forms a team with the shooter.
- 2 against 1 to attack.
Turn after each attack.
- 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?
- In front of the basket is a rebounder -team red- with a defender -team blue-.
- The offensive blue rebounder unloads the ball, and the defensive red rebounder goes after it in defensive position.
- The defensive rebounder immediately tries to enter the rebound duel to get the best position
- The rebounder plays the ball to the player in front of the basket, who shoots.
- Which duo wins the rebound duel?
Switch when one side is the first to win three rebound duels.
Ways to bring more challenge:
- When the attacking side has won the rebound duel and one of the attacking rebounders is free, they may quickly take an extra chance.
When it is too difficult, you can dissect the exercise as follows:
- Duo at the declarer position may not participate: plays out to the red player in front of the basket, doubles and comes to shot.
- Omit the extra chance.
The ball is under the post in the support.
Two players in the front of the box.
The fourth player wanders somewhere in the back box.
Two players in the front of the box.
The fourth player wanders somewhere in the back box.
- The support throws the ball out to the left or right and runs in the direction it was thrown.
- The ball is played back to the out runner.
- The player on the other front is constantly moving and breaks through at the moment the ball is played back to the out runner.
- The out runner hands the ball over and this through ball is scored.
Score 20x over left and 20x over right.
