Korfball drills

  • Get in 2 teams and stand in a row opposite each other and bring the pawns together to the other side.
  • You do this by first lifting your one hand and take the pawn and put it between your 2 hands.
  • Then you lift your other hand and put the pawn next to your hand.
  • From there, the next person does exactly the same until the pawn reaches the other side.
  • In total, 8 pawns must reach the other side.

In short: exercises in catching balls that bounce or roll at the right moment. This is to learn how to catch a ball as quickly as possible.

Organisation: One ball per pair.

  • The numbers 1 and 2 of each pair stand next to each other.
  • The trainer throws, rolls or bounces the ball a few metres away.
  • Number 1 and 2 have to get the ball, pick it up and pass it back as fast as possible.
  • The one who does this the fastest wins. After 5 times change.



  • you have three kids per post.
    • 1 is the attacker,
    • 1 is the defender and
    • 1 is the attacker, 1 is the defender and 1 is the attacker/catcher.
  • The attacker should try to score and the
  • defender must prevent this.
  • change when the attacker has scored.

  • The one who does this the fastest wins.
  • After 5 times change.
  • The remaining players take shots, free balls and penalty shots in the meantime
  • while the other two are busy with the reflex training.



  • The participants walk one after the other around the lines in a line.
  • The person at the front of the line can do whatever he wants for example: heels buttocks, sprints, lifting knees etc.
  • When the trainer calls 'yes', the person at the back of the line starts running as fast as they can and can then choose what they want to do.
  • It must be something other than normal running/jogging, it may be sprinting.
  • Warming up
  • 3min back and forth walk
  • 30 sec rest
  • 2 min back and forth walk
  • 30 sec rest
  • 3 min walk
  • Player 1 throws
  • Player 2 runs deep
  • Player 3 defends
  • 1 starting pawn
  • 4 teams at a pole, ball is played around (not too long) until someone goes for the catch.
  • This happens after that person passes the ball.
  • By this movement there is a hole in the 4-0,
  • That hole is filled by a player who will then take a shot.
  • The ball is caught by the rebounder and played out,
  • rebounder gets away at the post and the 4-0 is restored.
  • This is repeated.
  • make 2 groups
  • the attack takes the ball out to the trainers.
  • When the defence has intercepted the ball, they first pass it back to the trainers.
  • When a goal is scored, the team gets a bonus and can take the ball back out.
  • When attacking, pay attention to good set-ups and the star shape to get free

The team divides into two groups. Then the two groups go on to score a series of all 5.

This includes:

  • 5x Drive-throughs
  • 5x shots
  • 5x free balls
  • 5x penalty shootings
  • 5x small chances
  • The whole group walks around the yellow lines of the field in a line.
  • When the trainer calls 'yes', the person at the back of the line starts to run in front of the line as fast as possible.
  • The children do this by pulling a sprint.


Options:

  • The children run after each other around the yellow lines in a line.
  • The person at the front of the line can do what he wants for example: heels buttocks, sprinting, lifting knees etc.
  • When the trainer calls 'yes' the person at the back of the row starts to walk as fast as possible to the front of the row and can choose what he wants to do. It must be something other than normal running/jogging, it may be sprinting.
