Korfball is played either indoors or outdoors on a court divided into two halves called zones . In each zone there is a post (3.5 m, shorter for the young) with a basket at the top. This is positioned at two thirds of the distance between the center line and the back of the zone. The ball is similar to the one used for football (soccer) . There are two teams, each consisting of eight players: two men and two women of each team in each zone (attack and defense). Players score by throwing the ball through the other team's basket. After two goals the teams change zones: the defenders become attackers and attackers defenders. At half-time the teams swap halves of the court.

Extractions: Korfball is a Dutch game and it is being played in Armenian since 1990s. Korfball is a mixed team sport, that combines the best of basketball and netball. The sport originates from Holland. Due to it being mixed, it is the most social sport in the world and this has accounted for its rapid growth, especially within Universities. Originally the Dutch korfball association concentrated almost entirely on improving its own organisation and little attention was paid to the internationalisation of the sport. It was only after the formation of the International Korfball Federation in 1933 (comprising the Dutch and Belgian associations) that the further development of korfball came to be seriously considered. Korfball was, however, demonstrated at the Olympic Games of 1920 (Antwerp, Belgium) and 1928 (Amsterdam , The Netherlands).In the first half of the century, the underlying philosophy of korfball often appeared to be too progressive: namely that korfball is played by both sexes on equal terms. But times have changed considerably. We approach the twenty-first century in an era of greater parity between the sexes and, as the only mixed team sport, korfball both satisfies and confirms this trend. Hence, it has embarked upon a rapid expansion, taking korfball further into the Americas, Eastern Europe and South East Asia

Extractions: Search ... Categories Posted September 28, 2007 What started as a Hope College professor's idea to introduce a coed sport unique to America has turned into a dream come true for several Hope students who will be part of the USA team in the Korfball World Championship when they are held in Brno, The Czech Republic, in late October and early November. Korfball is the world's only coed team sport and resembles the game of basketball. Korf is a Dutch word for basket. There are baskets at each end of the court, but no backboards. There is no dribbling; only passing. A team consists of four players, two men and two women. Each successful shot is worth one point. Longtime Hope physical educator and softball coach Karla Wolters introduced Korfball to the West Michigan sports scene in 2005 when she began teaching a class in it. In the fall of 2005 Hope entertained a Korfball team from Europe. The next summer a team comprised of Hope students and recent alumni traveled to Europe for a series of games. Last fall Hope hosted the tryouts for the USA team that will compete in the World Championships. Wolters serves on the governing board of USA Korfball. " Our Hope Korfball players are thrilled to be part of the USA Korfball team that will be competing in Brno," said Wolters. "It is a dream come true to be able to compete with the world's best Korfball teams for the World Cup. We are also looking forward to learning about Brno and the surrounding area as none of us have ever been in the Czech Republic before. We aspire to play with passion, enjoy the entire experience and represent Hope College and the USA well in our travels."
