Korfball
This sport seems to be a variation of basketball, they seem to have similar rules like no dribbling. It is mostly played indoors.
| QUOTE |
| Korfball is a sport played within a rectangular field of play indoors or outdoors. Teams of four female players and four male players try to shoot a ball into a korf (basket). The sport's main characteristics encompass all-round skills, team play, controlled physical contact and gender co-operation. Teams of eight players divide into two sections - two male, two female in each section. Playing area consists of two large squares joined along the centre line, each square with a "korf" set in one third from the back line. One section starts the game in attack, the other in defence. Sections swap roles after two goals have been scored. In the UK, the sport is typically played indoors for the majority of the year with outdoor tournaments played in the summer months. |
