Essentially, we&#8217;re looking at a FUN session, with lots of EXERCISE and KORFBALL. Some work on basic skills (shooting, passing etc.) can be useful, but beware that everyone&#8217;s on such different levels it may be counter-productive, and much less fun.<\/p>\n<p>A little bit of competition goes a long way, especially in sessions earlier on in the year. Having people in teams as they do activities creates a good feeling in training. It doesn&#8217;t matter what prizes people are fighting for, it&#8217;ll be fun.<\/p>\n<p>At the start of the year, it&#8217;s standard to do the basics, so Freshers can understand the game as quickly as possible. Force Oldies to be there &#8211; they most likely will want to anyway. Then, as people master the basics, you can start to be fun and inventive.<\/p>\n<p>Mini-tournaments have worked very well this year, and the Mini-tournament sceptre is a prize treasured above all others. Give people at least a week&#8217;s notice of a mini-tournament, and watch as the teams are created and fancy dress is donned. Maybe prizes for best outfits etc could be a good addition? Make sure, though, that everyone gets involved. When people create teams, people can get left out quite quickly. A Mini-tournament where teams are picked randomly could be good.<\/p>\n<p>Try to advertise fun sessions, let the club know what&#8217;s coming, and people may get excited from having done it before. In the DSMG section, there&#8217;ll be Club Training ideas, from Korf-Circuits to the Korf-Trading Post Game.<\/p>\n<p>Be Inventive! Take something you know (eg. Circuits) and force Korfball into it &#8211; that&#8217;s where the fun sessions come from. Just make sure, however, that it&#8217;ll work. Get another coach to check it over, or run it through in your head thinking of what potential problems there are.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, if something makes sense to you, there&#8217;s about a million ways someone else could understand it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2190 Back to Teams &amp; Training Club Trainings can be the best trainings of all, with a bit of invention, revision and preparation.
