The American Cornhole Association - An Overview


!±8± The American Cornhole Association - An Overview

The game of cornhole has gotten wildly popular over the last several years. The play of the game has advanced to the point that there is an official sanctioning body that holds nationwide cornhole tournaments. The American Cornhole Association also endorses a standardized set of rules and regulations to govern the play of the game.

The services provided by the American Cornhole Association include free rules, player rankings, hosting tournaments, and educational tools. The educational tools include the rules of play, references, and links where you can purchase cornhole or download free plans so that you can build your own cornhole set.

Although brought to the mainstream lately, cornhole has been played for nearly 600 years. The game originated in Germany. It was invented to keep yung boys from throwing rocks at a hole in the ground. To keep the boys safe an alternative game was developed. So, despite popular claims, a group of frat boys in Cincinnati, Ohio did not invent the game.

Cornhole is drawing rival leagues, equipment vendors, and sponsors. The American Cornhole Association has more than 25,00 members, and membership is free. Beer companies often sponsor local leagues, but Chipolte Mexican Grill Inc, the Chicago Tribune, and Visa have been known to sponsor larger tournaments. The makers of Golden Tee, the most wildly popular coin operated game of all time, have launched a video game version of cornhole. Sales of the video game have outstripped production. Whether you want to purchase cornhole, play in a cornhole tournament, or just explore the game, the American Cornhole Association has the tools you need.
