Highbury Korfball Club (HKC) is a korfball club based in North London, England and is a member of the England Korfball Association.[1] Highbury Korfball Club succeeded Arsenal Korfball Club, which was established by Hugh Barker in 1998. Rebranding occurred to avoid confusion with the football team of the same name.
With six teams, HKC competes across a range from highly competitive to highly social indoor Korfball leagues, generally in the London area during the winter months. During the summer, Highbury competes at many standards in tournaments held over weekends throughout the UK. HKC has also made trips to various European countries to play in tournaments abroad against local teams and those from further afield. The summer tournaments are often but not always played outdoors.
