What you’ll learn
I can perform different types of passes to keep possession of the ball.
Key learning points
- Move: receiving a ball safely with one or two hands requires moving our body towards the ball to keep it under control.
- Move: keeping possession of the ball requires us to execute a variety of accurate passes.
- Think: the ball must be passed within 4 seconds to avoid violating the possession rule.
- Feel: increased confidence comes from success but it's also important to notice the benefit of learning from mistakes.
- Connect: respect is shown for others by playing fairly and safely.
Words to know
- bounce pass
- a short pass in a crowded area that hits the ground once
- overhead pass
- a pass thrown from above the head to outwit a player marking the ball, usually over a longer distance
- accuracy
- a skill that reaches the intended target
Common mistakes
Pupils think they only have 3 seconds to pass the ball like in netball.
In Korfball pupils have 4 seconds to pass the ball.
For parents, carers and teachers
- If you dont have Korfballs you can use handballs or netballs instead. Try and have equal gender split in all teams in all practices to replicate Korfball rules.
