Delete, no evidence that this is worthy of an encyclopedia article. Redirecting isn't likely to be a good idea, since this isn't likely to be a common search target. Nyttend (talk) 16:10, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The information is already contained in korfball#beach play. The beach version is not notable on its own. Some games, like beach volleyball, have gone beyond the simple concept of "hey-we-can-play-this-on-the-beach" to become sports competitions, but most haven't. Theoretically, one could have "beach touch football" or "beach basketball", but I'm not aware of any notability for those either. Mandsford (talk) 17:09, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect I think it makes sense to just redirect to korfball#beach play, since it is already described in the main article of the sport. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 18:12, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete at least for now. So far, the information available on beach korfball is sufficiently minimal that it is already straightforwardly incorporated into the korfball page. However, an international beach korfball tournament will soon take place, and other references to beach korfball in different countries suggest that it may be become more substantial and distinct to warrant its own article in the future.
