Mission and vision
What started as a dream in 2016 has since grown into a powerful movement. A group of korfball players of Surinamese descent wanted to connect their love for the country of their ancestors with their passion for the sport. Thus was born the plan to bring korfball back to Suriname. Not as a nostalgic project, but as a sustainable and structural reintroduction of the sport to the country.
Our mission
To reintroduce the sport of korfball in Suriname and offer boys and girls of Surinamese descent a platform so they can develop their talents and further put Suriname on the sports map.
Our three pillars
1️⃣ Reintroducing korfball in Suriname
We are working to build a solid korfball structure by making the sport accessible to children and young people. We do this by introducing training sessions, clinics and school programmes and training gym teachers.
2️⃣ Giving Surinamese talent a platform
Our goal is to develop a national team in which talented players from Suriname as well as talents with Surinamese roots in the diaspora can develop.
3️⃣ To put Suriname on the global sports map
By participating in international tournaments and representing Suriname at the highest level, we show the world what our country has to offer sport-wise. We want to make a lasting impact within the sports world.

Building the future together
Our growth is due to the efforts of enthusiastic players, trainers, schools and partners in both Suriname and the Netherlands. But we are not there yet. We call on everyone who has a passion for sport and development to join us in continuing to build the future of korfball in Suriname.
