Right we all know what you're thinking, what on Earth is korfball? Don't worry, we'd never heard of it before coming to uni either! Korfball is a fast-paced and dynamic game that is the only truly mixed team sport in the world.
There are 8 players in a team - 4 boys and 4 girls. (That’s right, mixed!) It is played on a rectangular pitch (basketball/netball sized) which is divided into two halves. One half is the attack zone and the other half is the defence zone respectively. Four players from each team - 2 boys and 2 girls - occupy the attacking and defending zones (Take a minute….it’s not as complicated as it sounds!).
The players switch zones after every 2 goals scored, so everybody gets attack and everybody gets to defend. Each half of the court has a goalpost with a basket. It's much higher than the basket in basketball (3.5m) and has no backboard.
We shoot to score! Sound fun? Great, come along to one of our Give it a Go sessions to learn more about the sport first hand and try it out!
