Korfballexercises for u19
We work in pairs.
- Score 20 distance shots. The first player shoots, the second catches and plays the first player again and pulls away from the basket to about 6 yards.
Gets the ball and shoots. The second player catches, plays on and pulls away. - Score 20 penalty shots together.
- Score 20 dodge balls of max 3 meters, change after 5 shots.
- Score 20 times after a move from the post to the side.
- Score 20 small chances from behind the post, change after 5 shots.
3 against 3 or 4 against 4.
As a team, try to play 10 x across to each other in a small space: 10 by 10.
As a team, try to play 10 x across to each other in a small space: 10 by 10.
- The other team tries to intercept the ball.
- If the ball falls but remains in possession of the attacking team, the count starts again at 0.
- Which team will be first to score 3 times?
- Then we play 4 against 4 on 1 basket.
After a goal we take a free ball and if it is seated also a penalty throw.
Which team is the first to score 5x
Play with 4 players around the post.
- 1 player takes the catch.
- Next player to pass the ball takes the pass.
- Ball is passed to the handler, handler passes to the person from whom he/she received the ball.
- Player takes a shot.
It is important to keep a high ball pace, to fill in quickly, to fill in the right persons and to throw in the right hand.
Play 4:4 with the trained drills alternating back and forth.
- The team that scores takes a free throw after a goal.
- If you score the free throw, you also take a penalty throw.
- If you score everything, you continue.
- After 3 interceptions, there is a change of positions.
- Combine in 3s around the post and score 40 through balls, coming at the basket from a different place each time.
The idea is to score from all sides. - Score 25 penalty shots.
- Move around the basket at a steady pace, making an evasive move just before the ball is played to you.
Score with 3 team 15 times. Again around the basket. - You keep moving at about 6/7 meters from the basket. After a "double" you shoot at the basket. Again all the way around the basket.
Note: at the back of the basket, you can shoot a maximum of 6 meters from the basket.
Number of players divided by 2 is the number of baskets needed.
Half of the players pick up a ball and stand at any basket. They remain here until the changeover time.
The rest of the players pick a basket to start. This group keeps working until the moment of change.
At the signal of the trainer, the players shoot.
How? The trainer can decide, distance, type of shot.
Round 1: 1 goal
Round 2: 2 goals
Round 3: 3 goals
Round 4: 4 goals
Round 5: 5 goals
The first player to score shouts loudly YES, all players must now immediately switch baskets.
The player who scored 1 goal in round 1 is in round 2, while the rest of the players are still in round 1.
Which player is first in round 5?
After this, the roles are reversed. The group of assist players/catch become workers and the workers become assist players/catch.
The exercise requires a lot of observation from the trainer. Who is in which round?

Distance: 20 meters with a pawn after 10 meters.
- Jog back and forth 10 times at a steady pace.
- Up to half 10 meters walking on your heels, then jogging out and back.
- Up to half 10 meters on your toes, then out jogging and back jogging.
- 2 times back and forth side to side in the middle changing sides.
- 2 times to half (10 meters) knee lift, then sprint out and jog back.
- Jog back and forth 5 times at a slightly faster pace.
Versatile match exercise 4 against 4
- Make 2 teams of 4 players maximum.
If you have more players than 8, make 2 pairs and change quickly after each or after 2 goals. - Team 1 starts attacking at 1 basket, team 2 defends.
If team 1 scores, they may continue attacking, but start again at the starting pawn.
If team 2 intercepts the ball they have 1 shot opportunity to try to score on basket 2 or 3.
If the defence scores after 1 shot, they become the new offence team and may start at the starting pawn, to attack basket 1. - Which team has scored the 5 goals first? You can vary this.
- Change when there are more than 8 players: after 1 or 2 goals quickly change.
Exercise in pairs
- For each two players put 5 coloured pawns in a square of about 6x6 meters, distance of your choice, and a pawn in the middle.
- Player 1 starts at the center pawn. Player 2 names a color after which player 1 sprints as fast as possible to the pawn and back to the center pawn.
1 minute at a time and then change. - Count how many times you hit the center pawn. Winner is the one who does so the most.
- Trainer calls out minutes.
- Keep moving at 6 meters around the basket and get 1 shot from each side.
- After 4 shots switch functions.
- The rebounder tries to catch the ball with max 1x bounce.
- Who of the two first scores 15x
Just like in the game, I try to practice the shot from all sides and not just the favorite front side, in addition, the players are constantly on the move.
The rebounder must always assess where the ball is coming from and catch it as soon as possible and place it again.

- Play 4:4.
- Only after the 5th ball contact may a shot be taken.
- To make it more difficult, two diagonal balls must also have been thrown.
The goal is to postpone a shot opportunity to try to improve an overtal situation
The focus in this exercise is on shooting to score.
The shooter must score 3 goals. You get one point for each shot you hit and switch when you succeed.
The rebounder under the post gets one point for each shot you miss. In
this way we increase the pressure on the shooter in front of the basket.
When the shooter in front of the basket has scored three goals we switch functions.
The rebounder becomes the shooter and shoots until three goals have been scored. Who has the most points?

The rebounder becomes the shooter and shoots until three goals have been scored. Who has the most points?
- A shooter stands at shot distance in front of the basket, a rebounder under the post.
- The attacker keeps shooting until three goals have been scored.
- Each goal scored counts as a point for the shooter.
- Each missed shot counts as a point for the rebounder.
- When three goals are scored, there is a change of positions.
- When both players have scored three goals the game is over. Who has the most points?
Too difficult:
To prevent the rebounder from getting a lot of points because the shooter doesn't get to three goals (quickly) a rule of play can be introduced:
To prevent the rebounder from getting a lot of points because the shooter doesn't get to three goals (quickly) a rule of play can be introduced:
- If the shooter misses five times in a row, the game is also changed.
To make the shot easier, one can choose to shoot close to the post.
Too easy:
Does the shooter score a lot of goals? Challenge him by increasing the shot distance
