Outdoor season: PKC 1rst training

A new season starts in the Netherlands
In the Netherlands we play korfball in an outdoor and an indoor
competition. The outdoor competition runs from September till November and runs again from April till July. The indoor season runs from November till Mai.
As you may know, in many countries Korfball is only played in schools. In the Netherlands however, we have a club system that on its turn brings korfball into the schools, especially elementary school, by organizing tournaments several times a year. The clubs promote korfball especially on the elementary schools.
There are about 580 clubs in the Netherlands and about 100.000 members/ supporters of these clubs. Every korfball club has their own outdoor pitch and next to the pitch there is what we call the clubhouse. In the clubhouse there are facilities for dressing and showering, but most importantly, there is a restaurant or cafe that serves food. This is where the members of the club socialize during their training nights and in the weekends when there are matches of the competition.
The club collects its income not only by the financial contribution of its members (about 30 – 40 euros per month), but also by selling drinks and food in the clubhouse. Of course there are also sponsors who can advertise their business around the pitch and in the clubhouse.
There are about 50 clubs that possess their own indoor facilities (sport hall) directly next to the out door pitch. The other clubs make use of the sport halls of the community.

Outdoor season
Yesterday the 13th of August my club PKC started the outdoor trainings. PKC is an outstanding club in the Netherlands. The club has more than 1000 members. The accommodation is really fine: three outdoor pitches (artificial grass) and two fine sport halls and a huge restaurant.

The selection of PKC consists of about 20 players during the start of the season. Its most (well)known players are: Leon Simons (77 international matches), Mady Tims, Susan Struik and the Belgium international player Davor Duronjic.
The first training after 6 weeks of holidays is an easy training. Coaches and players have to adapt to the demands of their sport again. We focus on the coordination and cooperation of korfball actions. During the first training of the season we do not exercise drills in which the opponent gives resistance and we do not play a game (a practice match).
We focus especially on shooting and running in a straight line in the area around the korf. Players have to get re accustomed to the korfball movements and the cooperation with their own dimensions and timing. They have to re-find the balance and control in the functional movements of korfball. And of course the players have to enjoy: they re-discover the fun in the game and the social context of the team.


荷蘭聯賽的新一球季即將開打

在荷蘭我們有室內及室外的合球聯賽。室外聯賽比賽的時間,上半球季是從9月份到11月份,之後次年的4月到7月再開始下半球季的比賽。室內聯賽比賽的時間,是從11月一直到次年的五月。
你可能知道,在很多國家,合球僅在學校推展。然而在荷蘭,我們是俱樂部系統,透過一年辦理多次的比賽,由俱樂部將合球推展至學校,特別是推展至小學。由俱樂部來推展合球特別是在小學裡推展。
在荷蘭有大約580個俱樂部,並且有大約100.000個會員/支持者在這些俱樂部當中。每個合球俱樂部有它們自己的室外球場,在球場旁邊也有俱樂部專屬的酒吧(clubhouse)。在俱樂部酒吧裡,有一些場所可做為更衣以及淋浴用,但是大部分比較重要的是,裡面有餐廳或是吧檯會供應一些食物。尤其是當訓練結束後的晚上以及周末有比賽的時候,這個地方是俱樂部會員們社交非常重要的場所。
俱樂部管理自己的收入,這些經費不僅從會員費(大約一個月30-40歐元)當中收取而來,也從吧檯內賣飲料以及食物所得而來。當然他們也有贊助廠商,而這些贊助廠商能將廣告張貼在球場內以及在俱樂部的吧檯裡。
在此大約有50個俱樂部擁有他們自己的室內場所(球場),緊鄰著室外球場旁。有些俱樂部則使用社區的室內球場。

室外球季
在8月13日我的俱樂部PKC開始室外球季的練習。PKC在荷蘭是一個非常棒的俱樂部。此一俱樂部有超過1000個會員,此場所也是非常的好:有3個室外球場(人工草皮)以及2個很好的室內球場及1個很大的餐廳。
在球季一開始,PKC的選手是由大約20位球員所組成。比較有名的球員有:Leon Simons(77次國際賽出場紀錄),Midy Tims,Susan Struik以及比利時國家代表隊的球員Davor Duronjic.
在休息6個星期後的第一次訓練是一次輕鬆的練習。我們的焦點放在合球動作的身體的協調以及合作。在這本球季第一次的訓練當中,我們不做有對手的對抗性練習並且我們不打比賽(練習賽)。
我們特別將焦點放在投籃以及在球框的任一區域做直線上籃。球員們必須再重新習慣合球的移位以及和他們自己的範圍及時間性之間的合作。他們必須再重新找到實用的合球移位時的平衡感以及控制感。並且當然的球員必須要能享受這些訓練:他們能再重新發現比賽的樂趣以及在球隊當中社交的關係。
