	So what exactly is Korfball ?
		Korfball is the exciting mixed team sport that is increasing in popularity throughout the world.
		In sports like basketball and netball (of which Korfball is often wrongly described as a 'cross between') you can just dump a tall player under the basket or net and just keep delivering the ball up to them.
		In Korfball a 'goal' is scored when the ball passes through the opponents rattan basket which is mounted on a 3.5m pole, itself mounted within the court as opposed to at the end of it.
