The countdown to the World Korfball Championship 2019 is almost over!
There are few days left before South Africa welcome you all at the UKZN Westville Campus Indoor Sports Centre in Durban in the opening match of the 11th IKF World Korfball Championship.
After four years of hard work behind the scenes by IKF and the Local Organising Committee (LOC), the much-expected tournament is now just around the corner and ready to start.
From 1 until 10 August 2019, the following 20 teams will fight to be the new World Korfball Champion.
| Pool A | Pool B | Pool C | Pool D | Pool E |
| The Netherlands | Chinese Taipei | Belgium | China | Germany |
| Czech Republic | Australia | England | Hungary | Portugal |
| Catalonia | Poland | Hong Kong China | Suriname | South Africa |
| New Zealand | Ireland | Slovakia | Macau China | Japan |
The 20 participating countries start playing in five pools of four countries. The top three of each pool and the best number four qualify for the round of 16 and stay in the race to become the World Korfball Champion 2019. The remaining four countries will be playing against each other in a round-robin system, with a final at the end, to determine their position in the final ranking (position 17-20). The best number four will be decided following the rules stated in the IKF Competition Regulations, which state that the points earned by each team shall be decisive.
