Open to all adults, this backyard sport is a ton of fun and simple to play. Cornhole is a distant cousin of jarts with less suspense but more skill involved. Serious players will tell you that, and will be scornful if you call it "Bean Bag Toss." Hand them a beer and tell them to lighten up. But good luck playing against these diehards, because they are good.
Rules: This is a fun time for all but we do got a couple of rules to abide by. First, don't bring in your own alcohol. Patty goes to a lot of trouble to keep you guys happy so be nice to her. Tip your staff for the same reason as before. Second, please check the Rules of Play below. Third, let's have fun!

Are you tired of only playing Cornhole in your backyard? Are you tired of waiting for open boards?
Join us on Wednesday nights for Corn Hole at the YARD. This league will begin inside and we will transition to outside as the weather improves. With 80 boards, there's no waiting for your turn. Fun leagues, cold drinks served right to your lane, food, friends and bonfires. How can you beat that? Get your team together (doubles) and register today!
Weekly, you and your teammate will play up to six different opponents during league play and get a chance to participate in our ‘Yard Challenge’. Once on site, each Wednesday, you’ll drop by our registration table to check-in, there you’ll be given a ticket for the ‘Yard Challenge’. If your ticket (by team) is called later that evening, you and your partner will get a chance to throw 4 bags (2 per player).
Make 3 out of 4 attempts and you and your partner win the pot! If nobody wins weekly the pot rolls over to the next week. All teams get a free ticket per week. Extra tickets can be bought to increase your chances.
The Scoreholio app will be used at Oakland Yard during our league and tournament play. The app will be used to keep, report scores, and track league standings.
Please take a couple of minutes to familiarize yourself with the app. It's easy to use and free.

Friday Indoor - Any Doubles
This is a casual league for pairs, any combo. Week #1 (Oct. 21) will be a fun night of Cornhole, we’ll assess all of the teams enrolled (skill level) and then divide the group into two leagues for the balance of the session (Competitive and Social).
Our goal is to make sure all teams have a close, fun match every week. For the session ending tournament (01/20/23), we’ll divide the total number of teams into four equal groups who will battle it out in a single elimination tournament.
