We look forward to welcoming you on Saturday.

For the first time in its history, 2 British korfballers have failed drugs tests.  As korfball is being taken increasingly seriously in Wales, it’s important that players realise that they are liable for testing both in and out of competition.  Please be aware that some medications that you might be taking may be on the banned list and you may need to get a Therapeutic Use Exemption - Asthma sufferers in particular may fall into this category.

Further information and links can be found on the EKA website.

This week the South Wales Echo featured an article on Korfball in Cardiff from when Mike Bushell from BBC News trained with us. The program will be aired on Saturday 18th August at 7.35am, 8.35am and 9.35am on BBC1.
