Cornhole Tournament

Cornhole Rules

General
Teams will consist of 2 members
Front of boards will be 9 paces apart (27 feet)
A member from each team will be at each board
Players will alternate tosses from either side of the board. Mutual agreement will determine which team begins; after that the team scoring the highest the previous round will determine first throw.
In the case of a tied round, you will use the last untied round and that round winner will throw first.

Score
Players on the same side will alternate throwing 4 bags in a “round”
Each bag that is thrown entirely into the hole is worth 3 points
Each bag remaining on the board at the end of the round is worth 1 point
If any part of the bag is touching the ground it will not be scored
A bag that bounces from the ground onto the board will not be scored

Playing
The first team that scores 21 or more points will be declared the winner
A cumulative score will be awarded after each round EXAMPLE: Round 1: Team A throws 2 bags into the hole and 2 bags stay on the board, Team B throws 1 bag into the hole and 1 bag stays on the board. Team A has scored 8 points, Team B has scored 4 points. Team A will be awarded 4 points since that is the difference. Team A is now up 4-0. Round 2: Team A has 1 bag stay on the board; Team B throws 3 bags into the hole. Team A scored 1 point, Team B scored 9 points. Team Bwould be awarded 8 points since that is the difference. Team B is now up 8-4. In the case of a tie at 21 or more points, an additional round will be played until a winner is determined.
