Beachkorfball in Portugal
On the beach in Portugal the Dutch National Team played a new variety of Beach Korfball. They placed the posts about 12 - 15 meters from each other, in one zone.
The game was played by two teams, each consisting of 3 players. (2 male players and 1 female player or 2 female players and 1 male player)
The video shows a lot of fun and good ball control. But the female players are barely visible.
I wonder what the match with 2 female players and 1 male player in each team looked like.
I think I would prefer a team consisting of 2 men and 2 women.

We have a few official indoor korfball courts with official size. But we have more than enough basketball court (28m * 15m), which is good to play 4 vs 4 as Ben expects. But basketball has been too dominant in Taiwan so I am not in favor this so-called one zone korfball, which just like basketball with the rule of non-dribbling and mixed genders playing. Taiwanese would said why I need to quit basketball to play another basketball-like sport? I has introduced 6 vs 6 playing in the basketball court with the normal korfball rules to the students and varsity players of my university. For each team, 2 males + 1 female in one zone and 2 females and 1 male in the other zone. This modified game allow coach/teacher to train the 3 major roles: attacker, feeder and rebounder with most similar pattern as 4 vs 4 within the limited playing court. Each attacking players has to possess and pass ball more frequestly because only 3 attacking players in one zone. It is fun!! Inglish
