Welcome to the Oxford University Korfball Club homepage. This is where you can find information about the club as well as links to our social media!
Hi everyone! I'm Matt, a second-year DPhil chemistry student, and (arguably more importantly) the President of OUKC for 2024/25! It's my pleasure to welcome you to the wonderful world of korfball.
We are a very friendly group: complete beginners are always welcome! A large proportion of us had never played korfball before when we joined. A wide range of commitment levels are supported too, from casual ball-throwing (and hopefully scoring) to high-stakes national tournaments.
Speaking of which, not only do we have a lot of fun, but we play to a very high level too. Our first and second teams play weekly matches against local teams, as well as BUCS tournaments throughout the year against university teams. Last year, our first team placed 8th nationally!
We also have annual varsity matches against Cambridge - it would be irresponsible not to mention that we won all four matches last year! These are highly competitive games but we ultimately have a lot of fun and all socialise after. This year's varsity matches will be held in Cambridge - it'll be another fun day (and potentially night) out!
Off the court, we have a lot of fun too; our favourite socials involve mini golf, bowling, pub crawls, board games, and more. There's truly something for everyone.
Hopefully I've sold our amazing club to you, so how do you join? The easiest way is to come to one of our taster sessions (see links above), but if you can't make any of those then you are very welcome to come to any of our training sessions.
Do contact us via oxfordunikorfball@gmail.com or @oxfordunikorfball on Instagram with any questions!
Korf Love,
Matt
Oxford University Korfball Club President 24/25
