Cornhole Rules
2. Bean Bag In-The-Count – A bean bag that is not in-the-hole but lands with any portion of the bean bag resting on the platform is in-the-count. A bean bag in-the-count has a value of one point. For a bean bag to be in-the-count, it must not touch the ground or any other portion of the court prior to coming to rest on the platform. If a bean bag touches the ground before coming to rest on the platform, it is a foul and must be removed from the platform prior to the continuation of play.
3. Bean Bag Out-Of-The-Count – A bean bag which comes to rest anywhere except in-the-count or in-the-hole is out-of-the-count and has no scoring value. A bean bag which is declared to be a foul is considered to be out-of-the-count (no matter where it comes to rest) and must be removed from the surface prior to the continuation of play.
Cancellation Scoring – Bean bags in-the-hole and bean bags in-the-count pitched by opponents during an inning cancel each other out. Only non cancelled bean bags are counted in the score for the inning.Cancellation scoring may be easily calculated as follows:
1. The points of both contestants are calculated for hole-ins and in-the-count bean bags.
2. The total points of the lowest scoring contestant are subtracted from the points of the highest scoring contestant. The result is a score for only 1 team per half inning (or no score if no bags are in or on the platform).
3. The score is for the current half inning is cumulative and added to the previous total for the scoring team.
The first side of contestants alternate pitching bean bags until they have thrown all four bean bags, then the remaining contestants (pitching from the other beanbag platform) continue to alternate in the same manner until all four bean bags are delivered and the inning completed.
1. The following are rule violations that must be spotted and called by a contestant or assigned judge. The penalty is to declare the bean bag a foul bag, which requires the bean bags to be removed from the court prior to resuming play.
(a) Any bean bag pitched when the contestant has made contact with or crossed over the foul line before the bean bag is released.
(b) Any bean bag that leaves a contestant’s hand once the final forward swing of the delivery process has started shall count as a pitched bean bag. A bean bag that is accidentally dropped by a contestant before the final forward swing has started shall not be considered foul and may be picked up and pitched.
The Inning Must Be finished – The cornhole match can never end in the middle of an inning. Thus, if a team that pitches first reaches or exceeds 21 points, the game can not end until the other side is allowed to pitch all of their bean bags and the inning is completed.
