Cornhole League Rules:
- Both team members must be present to play.
- Two boards placed 27 feet apart (front edge to front edge)
- Team members stand at opposite cornhole boards.
- Each team has four bean bags of the same color.
- The home team starts by throwing the first bag.
- Players throw bags, alternating between teams until all bags are thrown for that round.
- The most recent team to score begins the next round.
- Throw from anywhere behind the front edge of the board
- Bags must be thrown underhand.
- Remove bags from the board before the next round
- The number of rounds played depends on reaching 21 points.
- Substitute players are allowed
Scoring System:
- Play up to 21 points using “cancellation scoring.”
- No need to score exactly 21 points to win
- Bag in the hole: 3 points
- Bag on the board: 1 point
- The bag hanging off the board (not touching the ground): 1 point
- Bag touching the ground or another bag touching the ground: 0 points
- Bag touching the ground before landing on board: 0 points (remove from the board)
- After canceling, the team with the most points adds the net score (difference between both teams) to their total.
- The Winning team of the round throws first in the next round; if no team scores, the first pitching team throws again.
- Forfeited bag results from throwing out of turn or from in front of the board
- Disagreements result in a redo of the throw in question.
