1001 - Introduction
The English version of ‘1001 Korfball Exercises’ (published 1991 by IKF; author – Harke van der Wal) is the starting point for coachkorfball.com.
Since the book’s publication, the way korfball is played and coached has evolved. Some examples of this evolution are:
- Increased emphasis on the rebound
- Changes due to the free pass/restart distinction
- Greater stress on fitness (ie balance/agility, stamina, speed, aerobic)
The creators of coachkorfball.com believe that, in spite of these changes, the text of ‘1001 Korfball Exercises’ is still largely relevant for korfball coaches, particularly those working with less experienced players and teams.
However, if you have any suggestions about how the text of ‘1001 Korfball Exercises’ could be modified to reflect the way korfball is played and coached today, please contact us.
