Korfball drills

  • Work in pairs. (unless there is no other way)
    • Shot from 4 meter from stand.
    • Shot from movement right 4/5 meter.
    • Shot from movement left 4/5 meter.
    • Short chance left at 3 meter.
    • Short chance right at 3 meter.
    • Penalty throw.
    • Walk-through ball.
    • Shot at 6 meter.
  • Working with 2 teams you let every player shoot for 2 minutes, after that you switch functions.
  • You are 4 minutes per round.
  • Note the scores on a list, so you can see if there is improvement later in the season.
  • Working with 3 teams, you work 1 minute per shot.

Objective:

Set up attacks in overtime situations

Rules:

  • Make sure the offense always has 1 more person than the defense (3-2, 4-3, 4-2 etc.)
  • Gives the offense a task:
    • E.g. score within 5 passes, score after setting up an action, score from the rebound.
  • Gives the defense a task:
    • E.g. intercept the ball within 5 passes, defend in front.
  • Decide if you can go for a defensive goal.
  • Indicate with cones where the lines are.
  • Agree when offense switches with defense:
    • After X minutes, after X goals, after X interceptions.
  • Each player a hoop and a pawn.
  • Player puts the pawn about 5 metres from the hoop.
  • Player turns the hoop and sprints to the pawn.
  • Player must be back before the hoop is finished.
  • If successful, move the pawn one metre away.
  • Who can achieve the greatest distance?
  • Each pair has a ball, a basket and 3 hoops.
  • The pair stands about 10 metres in front of the basket.
  • On a signal, player 1 throws the three hoops and the ball towards the basket.
  • When the ball is thrown, player 2 sprints to the ball and shoots from each hoop until he has scored.
  • Then player 2 takes the hoops and the ball and runs back to the start.
  • Player 2 throws and player 1 shoots.
  • Who finishes first.
  • After that of course a chance for revenge.
  • A pair must make a continuous run of 10 penalty throws.
  • Missing is back to 0.
  • In the time this pair needs the other pairs will do shooting exercises e.g.
    • Distance shot. (counts for 2)
    • Pass.
    • Chance.
  • Then change.
  • Who scores the most?

You need the board game "30 seconds" to do this

Posts in a square or circle, reasonable distance from each other. In the middle stands the trainer with the 30 seconds board game.

List of 5-6 simple exercises with a number of goals. Each group (2 or 3 pairs) starts with the same exercise from the list. Each group continues until they reach the number. When they have reached the number for that exercise they go to the trainer and the board.

First come, first served. The group plays a round of "30 seconds" according to the normal rules. When they are done with the card, they get the next exercise and the number of goals. If a group has already done all the exercises on the list, they start again at the top of the list. Who reaches the end first?

Example exercises

  • 6 goals from 6 meter from standstill.
  • 12 penalty points.
  • 6 goals from 5 meter on the move.
  • 12 walk-throughs.
  • 4 goals from standing 7 meters.
  • 6 goals from movement 4 meters behind the basket.

3 or 4 at a pole.

  • Play around with each other. Someone takes the catch after a pass, this is player 1.
  • Player 2 is the one who just received the ball and is going to pass the deep line.
  • Player 3 moves towards player 2, is "front defended" and runs a deep line.
  • Player 2 passes a tight ball with a small arc to Player 3.
  • Player 3 takes a shot.
  • Player 1 catches, passes out to any team-mate and rejoins.


Expansion

  • Instead of shooting, player 3 makes a shooting move.
  • Player 1 steps out from the rebound.
  • Player 3 passes to Player 1 and takes a walkthrough.


  • Play 4:4 and defend 1 on 1, trying to see as many fellow players as possible.
  • When there is a shot you join the steal.
  • In the game you take care of the catch and try to double through the outlet support.
  • Run into the free space for a through ball.
  • 4 persons per pole working in pairs, each pair has a ball.
  • Two persons start shooting at the same time from, for example, 5m.
  • If you have scored twice as person you call 'yes' and the shooters exchange with the catchers.
  • The pair that has scored 10 times first wins.
