Korfball drills for technique attack / score

Play on 1 basket 3 (+1) against 3.

The extra attacker may not give initial support. From the rebound, the attacker is allowed to give a full attack.

The 3 attackers have to create chances by playing together. There is always an extra attacker, so make sure they focus on the shot.
The difficulty is that the attackers have to create enough bonding, otherwise they will definitely collapse to catch the rebound.


Goal attackers:
  • Making sure they can get free and shoot.
  • Which pass do I play and when?
  • What do I do if I don't get free? Emphasis on functional running.
  • What do I do when a fellow attacker shoots?
Goal defenders:
  • Make passing difficult
  • Take away lines, where can my attacker go?
  • Intercept pass (defend with the whole team)
  • Concentrated defence 1-1
  • Try to choose the moment to steal the rebound.
Swap roles after 2 minutes. Also swap with the regular attacker.
3 attackers of which 2 with (passive) defender in front court (around the basket) and rebounder with defender under the basket:
  1. Getting out of the passing to shot (what lines do I run when the shot is taken?).
    1. Attacker without a defender plays the assist.
  2. In between in support, which of the 2 attackers do I choose? And where do I take my second chance (attacker without defender is support).
  3. After 2-2 again to 3-1.
    1. Bringing in intermediate support again.
    2. Rebounder goes out to chance.
    3. Support turns to rebound.

  • 1 person stands up from above
  • one person on the rebound.
  • the other person is going to run a long line and take a shot.
drawing long ball - shot
  • You walk a long line.
  • The rebounder steps out
  • The attacker gives the pass to the inside.
    • Makes a run-in.
drawing Long line and running in
1 attacker, 1 defender and 2 assistants.
  • As assistants, try to pass as many balls as possible under the basket or next to the attacker without allowing the defender to interfere with the passing.
  • Keep eye contact.
  • Pass the attacker freely by directing non-verbally or verbally.
  • Keep the ball up high to be able to play faster and better.
  • Swap after 4 good chances.

Sponsors may also pass the ball between themselves to free the attacker.
The aim is always to play within shooting distance, so that every pass or action is targeted.
drawing 1 against 1 with double assist
Play 3 against 3 on 2 poles
  • Mission is to get as close to the basket as possible. No support or rebound. If you are free, you have to shoot
Most probably a lot of passes will be given without chances.
Adjusting: take every ball with the intention of shooting

  • From the moment you are in the 3v3, you must shoot within 4 passes It is therefore important to effectively run free, and you should also start shooting. (The passing becomes important now)

It is important to only throw the pass when you think someone is going to shoot
It is also important to only pass when you think your team-mate is ready to shoot You should also be able to free up everyone in every position So keep the ball up high
And when everything is right, everyone tries to get free As a result, every defender is occupied with his attacker, and there should be no static rebounds In this way, everyone can be dangerous.

What is important to score? Shooting.
What is important in order to score? Free running
What is important when you are free? Being ready to shoot! Toes and shoulders pointing towards the basket Actually, you are walking in a circle around the post.
drawing Shotgun attacks
  • 4 posts in a square.
  • 4 attackers.
  • 1 attacker.
  • 3 defenders.
  • The attacker must find the free post.
  • The defenders must therefore make it as difficult as possible and communicate.
  • Variants:
    • Only through balls.
    • Only shots.
    • x number of goals etc.
drawing 1 Attacker, 3 Defenders
  • Players stand next to each other.
  • The ball is thrown to player 2 and player 1 runs after it until halfway and inside.
  • Player 2 throws the ball at the moment he/she thinks the other player can make a good run through.
  • Player 1 finishes it.
  • About 3 exercises with defender at 80%. (allow chance).
  • About 10 walk-throughs.
  • About 10 short chances (2-3m) on the move.
  • About 10 shots (5-6 m) on the move.

drawing 1-1 Exercises with 80% pressure
  • Ball 1 (with or without defenders)
  • Player A passes to B and keeps moving in front.
  • B passes to C and starts rebounding.
  • C passes to D and keeps moving in the back.
  • D passes to A and both stay in front at a good distance from the basket until player C runs in the support.
  • Player A passes to C.
  • C waits in the support position for just under a second.
  • Player B pulls away from the rebound position.
  • Player C passes to B and turns on her axis to immediately fold in.
  • B passes directly back to C for the through ball.
  • When C misses, it is C's task to rebound immediately and adjust the free running player B for a possible 2nd chance. (short chance).
drawing Ball 1
  • Every 3 players at the basket, 2 attackers and 1 defender:
    • The goal is to get 2 free.
  • Exercise is finished when:
    • There is scored, the defender has the ball, if the ball collides.
  • Always turn in the order A - A - V.
  • If it is a 4-player game, the defender gets a rest turn before entering as attacker.
  • Work with 3 attackers against 2 defenders on 2 poles:
    • Attackers may try to score on the two posts (end when a goal is scored, when one of the defenders can intercept the ball)
    • Attackers get max 4 passes per chance taken (end when a goal is scored, when one of the defenders can intercept the ball, or when more passes are needed)
    • You may only take 1 chance per basket (ends when a goal is scored, when one of the defenders can intercept the ball, when more passes are needed, at 2 misses)
    • Player who misses may not attack again if the ball remains in play, so the attackers' overtime is gone.
