Korfball drills for technique attack / score

In short: nice shooting exercise with a lot of running.

Organisation: the baskets are placed in a circle. At each basket stands a server with a ball. The rest of the players stand in the middle of the circle (the middle must be clearly recognisable).

In the hall there is often a circle, on the field a pylon must be placed). The number of baskets is very precise: aim for 2 baskets per 5 players.

a ) The players in the centre circle are instructed to shoot through balls to one of the baskets, it doesn't matter which one. Since there are slightly more players in the circle than there are free baskets, it is important to find a free basket quickly. When you are not quick enough, you have to wait a bit. And when Johnny is already on his way to a basket, but is passed at the last moment by Marietje, who is running faster, Johnny has to go back to the centre circle and try again from there. Everyone catches his own ball. After the signal everyone runs through the centre circle or around the pylon to find a free basket again as soon as possible.

b ) As a., but now with the assignment: Who will score 10 goals first? Even the players who first thought: 'Never mind, he runs faster than me' will now try to be the first to get to the free basket. Make sure that the players do not 'cut off' by not going through the centre circle or around the pylon.

c ) Like b., but with the assignment: 'Who will be first to score a goal at each basket?

d ) Same as b., but with overhead walkthroughs.

e ) As b., but a 'takeover situation' follows: the runner from the centre circle, after having received the ball, plays the ball back to the declarer who started away from the post. The original declarer must try to score from this start. Who scores 5 goals first?

f ) As b., but the runner takes balls out of the way (left or right, distances not too great). The declarer also catches the shot. The runner runs to the basket and gets the ball from the receiver, who will hurry to try again from the centre, because: who has scored 5 times first?

g ) As f., but after the dodge no shot follows: the ball goes back to the receiver who started at the basket. He shoots with a quarter/half turn. The shooter runs back to the middle, the other person (of course) catches the ball. Variation: The exercise can also be done with defenders present. The defenders have a thankless task: the attacker has a choice of a large number of baskets. Which attacker will be first to score 10 walk-throughs or 5 goals from ducks?

Most korfball players find the above a nice relaxed exercise, which is very suitable to start a training session with, they can use as much energy as they need. When the time has come to really put everyone to work, the next step is to score a goal:

Explanation:

• How should I run to get the ball from defense to offense?
• How to set up an attack?
• Coaching each other.

Practicing:

• Throwing deep balls.
• Throwing bigger distance.
• Dealing with opponents who are taller.

• 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.

• A player starts under the basket with the ball.
• Another player moves in front from left to right or right to left.
• The player with the ball throws to the other player.
• The player who threw the ball goes forward and gets the ball from the other player.
• The player who has the ball now shoots and the other catches it from space.
• This way you start all over again.

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!

• You make a box,
  • in which stands an attacker,
  • The attacker must keep moving in the box while a defender runs alongside.
  • 1 person always plays the ball.
  • The defender looks at the ball and tries to catch it.
  • Every time the attacker catches the ball, someone else comes into the box.
  • When the defender catches the ball, he throws it back and you try again.

• Set up 3 posts in a triangle at the edge of the field, under each post a person who supplies the ball without it.
• At a good distance from the post you place a pawn and the rest of the players with the ball are placed near the pawn.
• You throw the ball to the middle basket and make a run through on this post.
• The person who throws in catches the ball.
• The catcher throws the ball after 1 of the 2 korfballs (free basket) and also takes a run through here.

To be adapted by:

• 1st post pass
• 2nd pole in/out shot

• 1st post short chance passer
• 2nd pole wide run shot

In short: nice shooting exercise with a lot of running.

We are going to set up a normal attack, but explain well how they should run now. Not behind and not between

The whole group is divided into two groups.
Both groups start opposite each other behind a row of cones.

The group with the ball must try to get the ball to the other side, without the ball being stolen by the opponent.

If the ball is stolen, the group with the ball must try to get to the other side without the ball being stolen.

• All 4 corners are occupied, ball starts left.
• Turn around once, when ball is back with 1st player, player 3 goes for support.
• Ball goes inside, player 4 resolves (rebound).
• Player 1 crosses with player 2 and player 1 makes a shot.
• Player 2 stays in motion and takes a short chance, after which player 1 finishes with a through ball.

It is important that the rebound does not take too long, that the crossing is tight and the passing is good.

2 men and 2 women per pole.
Under the post, one is the defending side and one is the attacking side.

• The offensive side takes the catching position, the defensive side tries to rebound.
• The two people in front take turns shooting.
• The rebounders change positions every shot.
• Whoever gets 3 rebounds first gets a point.
• Then switch roles (shooters<>rebounders).

Who gets 5 points first?
