Made a New Years resolution to get fit this year? Want to meet new people in Exeter? Bored of basketball? Time to move on from netball? If so, why not try Korfball? It is a fast, skilled, mixed team sport with similarities to netball or basketball.
Each team consists of four male and four female players and is one of the only truly mixed sports. It is a great way to get fit and to meet people. Almost everyone is a 'beginner' to korfball initially as the game is not well known so you will be in good company.
