WHAT IS CORNHOLE ?


Cornhole is a game in which players take turns throwing bean bags at a raised platform board with a hole in the far end. 

A bag in the hole scores 3 points, while one on the board scores 1 point. 

Play continues until a team or player reaches or exceeds the score of 21. 

Cornhole is played as singles or doubles. 


Most people play at the cottage or tailgating outside a local sports venue.


The game dates back as far as the late 1800’s and through the years variations of the game have been played like Bean Bag Toss Game, Bull’s Eye and Bags. The game also is believed to date back even farther, the 14th Century. See below the history of the game.
