DAY 2 REVIEWS & IMAGE GALLERY

GAME 4: ZAMBIA – ZIMBABWE (12-13)

The second match between Zambia and Zimbabwe was tense but sportive (just 4 penalties were given). In the first quarter Zambia was more accurate with the scores (5-3), but in the second and third quarter the Zimbabwean squad was mostly on the good side of the score, but still close. In the third quarter, the score difference was never more than 1. Four minutes before the end of the game, Chris Tembo scored 13-13 with a penalty shot. With two and a half minute to go, Tafara Muzvidziwa (ZIM) scored the decisive goal (13-14), and the missed penalty by Zimbabwe was not important anymore.

Tomorrow’s final match between South Africa and Zimbabwe will be decisive to know which team raises this tournament’s trophy and qualifies for the next IKF World Korfball Championship 2023 in Taipei.

GAME 3: ZIM2 Filchrist – SOUTH AFRICA (11-13)

In the first match between ZIM2 Filchrist and South Africa, Filchrist took the lead in the first quarter, but South Africa already had repaired that at the end of that quarter (4-4). The second and the third quarter South Africa took the lead (6-12), but last quarter ZIM2 Filchrist came strongly back at 46 seconds before the end of the match, scoring the 11-12. Danie Smith (RSA) answered directly and secured the win for South Africa with his third goal in this match (11-13).

DAY 1 REVIEWS & IMAGE GALLERY

GAME 2: ZAMBIA – SOUTH AFRICA (12-13)

The second match between Zambia and South Africa was a real thriller. Both teams were eager to win and played with temperament and searched what physical play was accepted by the referees. During the whole match the teams kept close to each other, just twice the difference in score was 3 in favour of Zambia and finishing the 1st half 5-5. Zambia was leading during the whole match, but in the last 3 minutes, South Africa was able to change the situation, and after an incredible comeback, achieved the victory by a short 12-13, and forgetting the previous 5 missed penalties.

OPENING CEREMONY

GAME 1: ZIM 2 Filchrist KC – ZIMBABWE (8-12)

The first match of this IKF AAKC South faced ZIM 2 Filchrist KC and Zimbabwe. Until half time, both teams were equal, very enthousiastic and performing fast play. The score of 6-6 at half time was a fare result for both teams. During the second half, the national squad of Zimbabwe was more accurate in scoring and was able to won the match by 8-12.

PRE-EVENT ACTIVITIES & CLINICS

The previous days before the tournament’s start, several clinics for referees and jury officers were taking place in Lusaka. Fifteen participants from Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Malawi were preparing to act as officials at this IKF All-Africa Korfball Championship South 2022. For referees, the duo-refereeing was new. The new roles, communication and positioning are the main topics for them. Talks about the rules and roundtable discussions were also taking place.

Each day there were 2 sessions where all of them participate, as during the event jury and referees will be working as a team. Each session ends with one hour practical match.
