Korfball drill: explosive swerve
Explosive swerve
- The focus in this exercise is angles running, many players run in corners, making it easy for opponents to keep up.
- The idea in this exercise is to force angular running lines. A lot of explosiveness is required from the players, so the exercise is quite tough.
- Place 4 markers in front of the basket, angled towards the basket about 3/4 meters away. A declarer stands under the basket and player goes x number of goals/minutes/actions running lines using the markers.
- Multiple combinations are possible. Should there be a third player, he/she can rest or possibly do a strength exercise such as Jumping-jacks, sit-ups, planking.
