Korfball drills

  • The shooter stands at 6 / 7 meters
  • The catcher stands near the post.
  • We switch positions when the ball has been caught 3 times in a row without the ball touching the ground.
  • Two players have two pawns between them in two different colors.
  • Number the pawns 1 and 2 or to a color, for example, red and white.
  • Players put the pawns between each other and plank.
  • When the coach calls out a color or number, as quickly as possible hand on it.
  • The player who is first wins, best of 5.
  • Winners move one way, losers the other.
  • 1 player takes an out-of-bounds ball in front of the basket.
  • And rebounds the ball inside.
  • Then goes the same way to the outside.
  • The player shoots only after he/she goes outside.
  • The exercise can be extended to include a through ball.
  • It is important to pass continuously with the outside hand.
Play 4-on-3:
  • The three defenders try to defend every shot within 5 meters.
  • Only at greater distance is the defender allowed to hang.
  • The offense plays around until there is a free shot opportunity within the 5 meters and a defender is on the way to defend that shot.
  • The free player makes sure to intercept.
  • After 3 goals or 3 interceptions we get a new defense.

Work in pairs of 3. If a task fails, walk around the box and do the task again. Just until you finish.
Which group finishes first?
  • Take 10 through balls - score 9 times.
  • 10 shots from 5 meters - score 5x.
  • 10 shots from behind the basket at 4 meters - score 5x.
  • 10 penalty throws - 9x scoring.
The number of goals to score is fine for an A group and seniors. Adjust up or down if necessary.
  • The shooter plays the ball into the support.
  • The shooter receives the ball back after a short movement to the left or right.
  • The shooter shoots at goal.
  • The intercepted ball is immediately played back to the shooter.
  • The shooter plays to the passer again.
  • The shooter is released again in almost the same place as the first shot.
  • After scoring twice, change positions. Each player takes each position 3 times.
  • The exercise can also be played with 4-pairs.
  • In the catch the duel is between 2 catchers.
We play 4:4, with 3 attackers playing in the service of 1 striker.
  • The goal of the exercise is to free the striker in such a way that she will score. This can be done in many ways, but see what her defender's weakness is and play that out.
  • You can also take advantage of the attacker's real quality.
  • Shooter at 6 yards always free after a breakthrough. Coming from deep after a shot from another.
  • Each attacker gets a turn.
