Korfball

STUDENT CLUB

The University of Birmingham Korfball Club is a club for everyone; from those wanting to win BUCS competitions, to those wanting to just have fun and keep fit!

 

We are the biggest Korfball club in the UK, and one of the top performing university Korfball clubs in the country. Each of our four BUCS teams regularly win medals and we are the only UoB Sports Club to have exclusively mixed gender teams.

 

Everybody is welcome, from 1st years to PhD students, and within our club we have everything from competitive members looking to win BUCS medals at National Championships, to members who come along to training and socials just to make friends and have fun! Most people have not played the sport before, and our regular squad and development team training results in complete beginners becoming skilled players in no time at all.

 

Our whole club training and weekly socials bring together all our members, providing the perfect environment to make new friends and enhance your university experience.
