Korfball Kung Fu The only mixed ball sport in the world. A grasshopper can teach you more than you think. A korfball team consists of 8 players of which 4 boys/men and 4 girls/ women.

In this sport your opponent is always of the same gender. In the game there is limited freedom of movement for the ball. As a result, the only way to score is to play together.
