Fun Facts about Cornhole

Did you know that cornhole is one of the United State's fastest-growing competitive sports? The American Cornhole League hosts over 25,000 tournaments annually and is home to over 200,000 active players.

Cornhole rules are pretty simple! Teams alternate throwing four bags each round of play. For every bag they throw into the hole, that team will earn three points. That team will earn one point for every bag they throw that stays on the board. Cornhole uses cancellation scoring, so if Team A scores ten points in a round, and Team B scores eight points, Team A earns two points toward the overall score. Play concludes once one team earns 21 total points or more!

Cornhole can be played as an individual sport versus another player, or it can be played with teams of two. In the ACL, there are many categories that individuals can play in; singles, doubles, co-ed doubles, women's singles, women's doubles, senior singles, and senior doubles.
