What is korfball?
Korfball is a unique mixed team sport that men and women play together, with similarities to basketball, and handball, but very different. It's fast-moving and skillful, for players of all ages (we range from early 20s to 40s) and various abilities (no experience at all, to 15+ years), and it's competitive yet friendly.
How is it played?
It's easy to pick up the rules of korfball.
Here are the basics:
-
You score a point by shooting the ball through a basket
-
You can only shoot if you shake off your marker, but you can't run with the ball
-
Each team consists of four men and four women, with half attacking and half defending
-
Attackers and defenders swap roles after two goals.
