CORNHOLE TOURNAMENT RULES

GAME PLAY

Games will be played with teams of two players (either randomly assigned or chosen). The cornhole boards will be placed 27 feet apart from front edge to front edge. After each team has pitched four bags, players take score, and resume pitching to the opposite board. The team who scored points in the previous inning goes first in the next inning. If it was tied, the team who went first in the last inning gets to go first again. 

SCORING 

A cornhole bag that goes through the hole is worth 3 points. A cornhole bag that lands on the board and stays there is worth 1 point. A cornhole bag that lands on the ground or bounces onto the board is worth 0 points. Only one team can score points per inning. The team with the higher score cancels out the points of the opposing team in that inning. The team with the higher score in an inning earns the difference in points. For instance, if Team A scores 5 points and Team B scores 2 points in an inning, Team A earns 3 points for that inning. 

WINNING THE GAME & PAYOUTS

The first team to reach or exceed 21 points at the conclusion of an inning is the winner. The winning team will receive 75% of the total buy ins & second place will receive 25% of the total buy ins.
