Student korfball
We are certainly not the only student korfball association in the Netherlands, in fact, there are also nice and friendly student korfball associations in 10 other student cities. These associations are all connected under the Student Korfball Committee (SKC). The SKC is the committee between the associations and the KNKV. They also provide the barometer at tournaments. What is the barometer? The barometer is a competition, organized by the SKC, for all student korfball clubs to determine who will be the best student korfball club in the Netherlands at the end of the academic year. Associations earn points at tournaments by: Winning the tournament. Hangover korfball is played on Sundays. The winner of the final receives 15 points. To wear the nicest outfit, matching the theme (outfit prize). To best carry out the performance assignment (performance prize). More information can be found on the SKC Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/knkvsk
