Korfball
Welcome to the University of Liverpool Korfball team
Korfball is the world’s largest mixed-gender ball sport. Haven’t heard of it? We hadn’t either so that’s not a problem. In summary, it’s similar to basketball and netball with a few different rules and girls and boys play on the same team.
Competitive
We play competitively in British Universities and Colleges Sports (BUCS), and also in the Christie Cup. We also have three Sunday league teams in the North West Korfball League.
Training Times
| Day | Time | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | 8.00-10.00pm | Sports and Fitness Centre |
| Wednesday | 6.00-7.30pm | New Players and 3rd Team |
| Wednesday | 7.30-9.00pm | 1st and 2nd Team/BUCS Players |
Social Events
The club is a very social sport, something that is helped by being mixed-gender. We train twice a week and any sporting ability is welcome. Come give us a try.
