Korfballexercises for technique shoot / score / shot

• Two players stand in the attack zone, one with the ball.
• The attacker with the ball passes it forward and retrieves it again.
• Then the attacker turns in for the shot.
• The rebound player runs in from the back.

• Each person runs in 5 times from the left.
• Each person runs in 5 times from the right.

• Perform the repetitions consecutively to get a good feeling for turning in and shooting.
• The rebound player must time well.
• Run at the right moment, namely when the shot is taken, to be in the correct position for the rebound.

• Divide the players into two teams.
• Create two zones around the korf for shots from the outside.
• Each game requires 3 or 4 balls.
• Shooters stand outside the zone and each team has a rebounder inside the zone with the opponent's shooters.

• The shooters attempt to shoot from outside the zone to score a certain number of goals as quickly as possible.
• Rebounders catch the ball and pass it to their teammates in the other zone.
• The team that first reaches the agreed number of goals wins.

• Rebounders may not leave the zone, and shooters may not enter it.
• The rebounder must quickly assess where the balls are coming and efficiently pass them to teammates.

Exercises

• 8 running-in shots: Cone at 7 metres in front of the basket. Switch after each running-in shot.
• 4 evasive shots to the right: Cone at 6 metres. Change roles after shooting twice.
• 15 small chances: Shoot in turns.

Execution

• Place the cone at 5 metres. If you score a goal, you may steal a cone from another group.
• You only shoot again when your partner is back at the basket to rebound.
• Switch roles every two shots.
• Continue until a group has no cones left.

• Divide the group into pairs. Each pair has a ball and a basket with four cones.
• Set up the field as shown in the diagram.
• Player 1 starts at the cone in front of the basket, player 2 is the passer.
• Player 1 begins with a lateral line and then accelerates sharply for the running-in shot.
• After the running-in shot, player 1 stays near the basket, moving for a short chance.
• Finally, player 1 makes a deep line for the distance shot.
• Afterwards, player 1 switches with player 2.

• Make it competitive by assigning points to the different goals.
• Running-in shot and short chance count for 1 point, the distance shot for 2 points.
• Three successful attempts in one turn gives 5 points.
• Failing to score results in a deduction of 1 point.
• Who scores 25 points first and which post has both players reaching 25 points first?

Objective

• The objective is for each team to score 125 times in the following 5 tasks.

Task 1: Running-in Shots

• Score 30 times.
• Intermediate task 1: 20 sit-ups.

Task 2: Shots from the Front of the Post in Motion

• Score 30 times.
• Switch every 3 shots.
• Intermediate task 2: 20 push-ups.

Task 3: Shots from 6 Metres without Moving Around the Post with Intermediate Pass

• Switch after 2 shots.
• Pass and receive back.
• Intermediate task 3: 30 squats.

Task 4: Penalty Shots

Task 5: Shots from the Back of the Post in Motion

• Score 25 times.
• Optionally rotate the posts 180°.
• Switch every 3 shots.

• X number of korfs.

• Let the players use a die to determine how many shots or opportunities they must score at each korf.
• They may dribble with the ball to the other korf.

• Different types of opportunities: with one hand, penalty shot, running-in shot while they are moving with the ball.

• Per post, a group of three players. All exercises are performed at 100%. Each exercise lasts 2.5 minutes. Intermediate tasks have a specific duration. The goal is for the group to score as many goals as possible.

• Shooting from the front of the post at 6 metres. The shooter gets a repeat shot, then switch roles.

• 20 burpees and 20 sit-ups.

• Running-in shots from 10 metres at the back of the post.

• Group 1 against 2 and group 3 against 4. 3 versus 3 without taking over. If scoring, you may continue, goals count double.

• 2 players under the post, 1 in front of the post. Ball is thrown from the front of the post to the player moving away, then a shot. Ball is played out to the one who shot. Player moves away from the post, receives the ball and shoots.

• Jumping jacks for 2.5 minutes.

• Shooting from the back of the post from at least 6 metres. The shooter gets a repeat shot.

• Group 1 against 3 and group 2 against 4. 3 versus 3 without taking over. If scoring, you may continue, goals count double.

• Taking penalty shots. Each player makes 4 penalty shots in a row, then switch roles.

• Wall sit and plank.

• 2 players in the attack zone, 1 person for rebound/supply. First ball always from supply to an outside player. Then follows a pass back and the first player runs deep. Cross ball that is played directly for the running-in shot. Rebound player joins the remaining attacking player.

• Form groups of three or four players at a korf.
• Pass the ball towards the korf and move to the left.
• Receive the ball back and shoot.
• Then move to the right and take a running-in ball.

• Score 10 distance shots from the left and 10 from the right.
• Emphasise the running-in ball by scoring 20 running-in balls on the right and 20 on the left.
• Vary with a shot at one cone and a running-in ball at the other cone.

• Pairs per korf. One fixed feeder and one fixed shooter, for example, four metres in front of the korf.

• The shooters are tasked with scoring 10 points as quickly as possible.
• A goal counts for two points.
• If a shot is missed, one point is deducted from the total (the total remains at 0 points if you are at 0 and miss).
• As soon as someone reaches 10 points, the players switch roles.

• For less advanced players, you can reward a goal with, for example, 3 points.
• For advanced players, you can make it more challenging by awarding only 1 point per goal.
• The distances can be increased or decreased as needed.

• Work in pairs or groups of three. In pairs, alternate turns; in groups of three, rotate positions.

• Place 6 cones around the korf, all at a distance of 6 meters.
• Which pair or group of three scores first 5 times with a running-in shot from each cone?
• Next, which pair or group of three scores first 2 or 3 times from each distance?
• Then, move the cones to a distance of 2 meters and let each player score 2 goals from each side.

• 3-5 players per korf with two balls.
• Marker cone approximately 6 metres in front of the korf.
• Players are numbered and stand in order behind each other at the marker cone.
• Numbers 1 and 2 have a ball.

• Number 1 starts shooting and retrieves their own ball.
• If they score, they pass the ball to the next player.
• If they miss, they shoot again from the spot where they retrieved the ball until they score.
• The shooter joins the back of the line and waits for their next turn.
• Number 2 starts shooting as soon as number 1 has taken a shot.
• Number 2 continues shooting until they score, then passes the ball to the next player and joins the back of the line.
• If someone scores before the person who started before them, that person is out.
• Who remains the longest?

• There are 4 participants.
• Number 1 scores immediately, passes the ball to number 3, and joins behind number 4.
• Number 2 misses, and the ball rolls away.
• Number 3 scores, number 2 is out and no longer participates.
• Numbers 2 and 3 pass the ball to numbers 4 and 1.
• Number 1 waits to shoot until number 4 has taken their shot.

Objective

• Improve shooting accuracy and build fitness.
• Which pair will be the first to complete 5 runs back and forth?

Rules

• Start with 10 sprints back and forth.
• Then shoot 10 times and count how many goals you score.
• If you score 5 or more times (half of your number of sprints back and forth), you may sprint one less time, so 9 times.
• Then shoot again and count how many goals you score.
• If this is half or more than the number of times you have run back and forth, you may reduce the sprints by one more.
