About Guildford Thunder Korfball Club
Guildford Thunder Korfball Club was started in 2014.
Lead by our brilliant coach Zu, Guildford Thunder has more than 20 regular members, most of whom had never played or even heard of this sport before. Guildford Thunder has worked hard to get a team into the Western Korfball Regional League and develop squads in lower leagues. It's not just about the sport - we are an extremely friendly and welcoming team with many social events to get involved in too! Joining us will give you an insight to a new sport and will be a great way to meet new people and make friendships. Come and give korfball a try! |
What is korfball?
Korfball was invented in 1902 by Dutch PE teacher Nico Broekhuysen. Korf is Dutch for basket. It is an adaptation of the Swedish game, ringboll, which shares lineage with basketball and netball. It is the only mixed-sex team sport recognised by the International Olympic Committee.
Korfball has been in the Olympics twice (1920 and 1928) but could be included in future games. Initially only popular in the Netherlands and Belgium, it drew criticism from social conservatives for promoting loose morals (but it’s not the only reason we love the sport). |
