    Commonly asked questions/comments that I'm now going to answer in bulk:
    1) You cannot dunk the ball - as you are not allowed to touch the korf or post during play.
    2) Yes, Korfball is a thing and yes people choose to play it over basketball. Get over it.
    3) Saying 'Lebron' and 'Steph' would kill these guys at their own game, is like saying Conor McGregor beating Floyd Mayweather at boxing. How did that work out again?

      Physical attributes aside, but can Lebron beat a pro in a completely different sport he's never played in? Interesting experiment, but doubtful.

      Ninh Ly True, saying that is pretty disrespectful to the players who train very hard for the sport they love. I do think that many top NBA players could be below average to average when they start playing though

    The sport has also been rapidly evolving over the past years, you can now swap players 8 times, you can swap the same players in and out of the game and a 25-second shot clock was added. There's this event called the Korfball Challenge each year between Christmas and New Year's, where new rules are tested annualy.

    After rewatching this for the 10th time I noticed one thing you missed. So, for all the people that want to play korfball, here it is:
    As Ninh explains, there are several conditions that you need to validate on in order for your defending to be valid. There is one left out in this video: your feet need to be on the ground. Some people don't know this (heck, a lot don't) but it's a rule. You can jump while defending, you'll never get the ball when the shot goes through.

      Having a few players in one country on an entire continent is not "increasingly popular in Africa".
      At least say increasingly popular in South Africa which isn't even true because most South Africans don't even know the sport exists.

    There's one major thing you forgot to tell, I used to play korfball and half of the season in spring, summer and sometimes in autumn as well korfball is played outdoors on (fake)grass (like hockey). Depending on the wether not all countries are able to play outside.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  Před 8 lety +2

      +Louisa van den Brink As you can imagine, I can't explain every rule, variation or change about Korfball in the space of 4 minutes. Yes, I'm fully aware that it can be played outdoors. But a total beginner who wants to know the rules, doesn't necessarily need to know that. Thanks for your input, be sure to share this video and subscribe :)

      @ebojfmdboojoh4023 Před 5 lety

      Yes I think I agree, although i think its a pretty old game like 1900's of something. plus it's far too long at 30 minutes per half especially when you have to keep moving the ball quickly. I think 3 thirds of 15 minutes with a 2 minute break in between would be better.

    When it comes to marking an opponent (especially when defending) does that mean u have to mark the same person throughout the whole time u play or can u switch to whoever else has the ball as long as only one person is marking/defending against them?

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  Před 5 lety +2

      I believe you can switch, though you have to mark a person of the same gender.
      I think for the sake of familiarity, you generally mark the same person all game.

    • @ErwinOosterhoorn
      @ErwinOosterhoorn Před 5 lety +1

      Yes, you can 'switch' to the other person during the game. You can see that in the video a few times when they try to run past the defender, and quickly places the ball to the other attacker. As mentioned, it has to be the same gender.

Grew up playing on netless rims and a lot of playgrounds have double rims on them. Maybe an adjustment, but If you can shoot, you can shoot.

      The idea of the game is for your team to get a ball and push it into your opponents back wall BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. This includes wrestling, punching, kicking and basically anything you can think of.
      You can't double team somebody, but anything else is basically legal.

      It is much nicer to do than to watch! I played my last game about 25 years ago and still miss the game and dynamics. You have to be a quite allround athletic to play on a high level in the Netherlands, Belgium and a few other countries. There come quite some relationships from being member of korfball clubs, and quite some children are grateful that this game exists otherwise it would have been quite unlikely that they were born. My experience is that korfball players are more used to deal in a natural appreciative way with the other gender than team sporters who do their sport only with their own gender.

    How far do you have to pass the ball, on the out ball pass? I heard you need to pass more than 1.5 meters. How does the defender need to be from the inboounder/start of the throw off.

    • @ErwinOosterhoorn
      @ErwinOosterhoorn Před 5 lety

      The ball need to travel 2.5m, and the defender can not be so close that you can not pass the ball to another player. It's easier if you as a defender are not too close as you can guard other players to prevent the ball going to them.

      The fact that you can't move with the ball forces you to really think about positioning, timing and tactics. You als have to be great at passing. There are great skills to be learned to defeat your opponent in the 1v1(when attacking or rebounding). And shooting from great distances as well as being able to pass your opponent by tricking them is both very very satisfying.

      Further more, korfball has a wide variety of roles. The coach always makes sure the men take the roles that are more physical (like being the rebound under the korf) and the woman the less physical ones. That's why woman are a lot of the times deadly with short distant shots.

      +Skye Walker - WRONG! The material of the korf has nothing to do with how easy it is to score, and if anything, a moving rim is harder to shoot in, not easier.
      The diameter of a korfball is 22.44 cm against a korfball rim diameter of 41cm. A ratio of 54.7%
      The diameter of a basketball is 24.26cm against a basketball rim diameter of 46cm. A ratio of 52.7%
      This is mathematical proof that a basketball is easier to sink.
      Given also that a basketball rim is 10ft from the ground, and a korf is 11.5ft from the ground, this added height would also make it more difficult to sink the ball in.
      So in short: you're wrong.

      Yeah, it's pretty cool. Predominantly played in select European countries, but a great co-ed sport to play. Thanks for stopping by, check out some of my other vids! :)
