Complete overview of the matches

Teams

From 2017 The Belgian team is a talented team that has had a good preparation for the World Cup. It is a well-balanced team of last years and emerging talents who can also be part of the U17 next year. We will fight with respect against each opponent for the ultimate goal … WE WANT GOLD!

It's already a tradition for Catalonia's U17 National Team to come to the Netherlands to take part in the U17 Korfball World Cup. This year is more exciting than ever for the team, as it will be played in a new venue. A group of very talented youngsters will be playing for Catalonia to test themselves against the best players of their own age, and see how far they can make it.

From 2017 Our team is very young and this season is our second season we work with these teenagers. Apart from a few players, for all of them it will be their first international event. Our goal is to win a medal and built on success of the previous representation.

From 2017 This year our team consist of players who have just come up from the England Under 15 squad, and the other half are players who have been a part of this years England Under 19 squad. So a mixture of talents. After last years performance we will try our hardest to again compete for a medal. As the World Cup has been later then originally was planned this year, we have had to adjust our preparations, due to the majority of the players being in the middle of their exams. Schijndel is always a well organised tournament and we would like to express our thanks to everyone involved. The England Under 17 squad and our large group of supporters will make sure we are giving everything we have got during the tournament.

The team of Germany is looking forward to the first U17 Korfball World Cup in Eindhoven. We had an intensive preparation since October with regular trainings sessions and the participation in the Korfball Challenge. The German season already ended in April, so the players’ focus is only on the national team now. Many of the players have taken part in the KWC in Schijndel, but it is a great new experience for them and for the staff to have new conditions. Due to the amount of training sessions and team building arrangements, the coaches could form a good team, with the right mix of experience, spirit and motivation.

The Hungarian U17 national team’s core has already been tested on the last season's tournament, so the frame is made up from experienced players. This year is the last for many players in this age group, so the team is very motivated and their goal is to achieve the best result. Although new players are also travelling with the national team and many of them are facing with their first international trophy. Because of this duality, perhaps the most important thing for our players is to gain more constructive experience in the World Cup to develope and to have fun in order to gain motivation for their career.

After very successful years in Schijndel we are now guest in Eindhoven. We're very curious how successful the event in Eindhoven will be, but in the end our main goal is the World title. Besides winning the world title, naturally we want to entertain the public with beautiful and functional korfball. We want to show what we can do during this Korfball World Cup, which is what we have been training for all this time. We have a fantastic group with a lot of quality, together with the very good and experienced staff we go for the ultimate goal and that is "GOLD". Anyhow, the Netherlands will do their best to capture the title again, even though there is expected to be severe resistance from the opponent Belgium.

New Zealand proudly presents our very first squad participating at a Korfball World Cup for their age group. This Team has been training together for a relatively short period, their love for the game and strong bonds developed quickly, they have brought skills from other sports and are ready to show the rest of the world what they’re capable of. With dynamic game play and lots of goals divided over both genders, we are aiming to become the surprise of the tournament.

Portugal is proudly participating for the fourth time in the U17 Korfball World Cup, bringing once again a very young team. All our players play actively in the Portuguese championship and youth tournaments, they are skilled korfball players with the ambition of becoming improving themselves and of representing Portugal in the following years. We hope to bring a very dynamic and passionate korfball to this championship.

After almost a decade of absence of Slovakian team at the event, there is finally a new generation of players in Slovakia who are capable of taking part in such an event as the World Cup. Our team is very young with an average age not even reaching 15 years. Therefore this event will be mainly about gaining an international korfball experience for young Slovakian talents. Although their first international participation was the U15 World Cup in Hungary 2 years ago, this team has some more years to fully flourish. Most of the players took part also in Hungarian competitions, where they became champions of the U15 category in 2017 and silver medallists in both U15 and U17 categories this season. We expect great time in Eindhoven full of new experience and friendships.
