Korfball
Warm up
Small invasion game where students are asked to play a game of rob the nest, introducing them to the concept of invasion games. Divided into two teams, students are to collect as many bean bags from their oppositions nest to place in their own. Using a number of different transport strategies, such as walking, running and eventually running and passing, time these activities to facilitate adequate warm up.
A mixed gender sport, very similar to Netball in which members attempt to score in the basket at the end of the court as in netball. However contest for the ball is limited to opposition pairings of the same gender and shooting from anywhere on the court. There are 2 halves and 2 goal zones on the court. the advantage for teaching this within a netball unit, is that it has slightly easier gameplay in terms of "zones" and endorses an even pairing of opposition players.
Court
Game Play
As there is only two halves in Korfball (as opposed to thirds in netball), Korfball is likely easier for those less familiar with the zonal invasion games to comprehend. Begin by playing a modified game of 8 on 8, allowing several steps with possession, but endorsing that each team member handles the ball prior to an attempt at goal being made. To alleviate the difficult of scoring, place a hoop on the ground.
Progressions
- Divide teams into forwards and backs, introducing the two halves" with the centre line.
- Use netball goal
Guided Questioning
- Ask students areas in which they would like to develop their skills
- Use small sided games to address the areas they feel they need improvement. From player positioning, team communication and skill competency will likely be areas they seek improvement.
